In this update to the National Technical Assistance Center for the Education of Neglected or Delinquent Children and Youth's (NDTAC's) 2006 issue brief on family involvement, the evolving definition of family and the compelling reasons for family engagement are explored. Further, promising advances in the field and innovative ways in which systems across the country are approaching family involvement and engagement are presented. The expanding role of the Federal government through the inclusion of family engagement in statutory and nonregulatory guidance is discussed. Finally, a selection of the ever-growing resources and tools for State, local, and tribal jurisdictions interested in establishing and/or building upon their efforts to meaningfully engage and partner with families is provided.
