Special Events

The Florida PIRC at USF conducts, co-sponsors, and/or helps promote several special events annually in addition to the numerous trainings and workshops provided around the state. These special events are typically day-long professional development opportunities or conferences connected directly to the major initiatives of the Florida PIRC at USF .  They provide opportunities for parents, educators, and community and faith-based personnel to participate in more intensive training on key topics and issues related to parental involvement in education.
