UnidosNow uses digital tools to expand education for families in Sarasota-Manatee
It’s a Tuesday evening and a group of Latino parents are logging in to a Zoom meeting with Lisbeth Oscuvilca and Marnie Howell from UnidosNow. They’re here to learn about opportunities for them to improve their English, along with ways that they can better educate themselves and their children.
Oscuvilca and Howell welcome parents to the session as they trickle in to the meeting. Sometimes, children can be spotted on the screen at the very beginning of class. They’re helping the parents log in, because technology is still a challenge for some of them. Then, the child disappears from view and the parent is ready to learn.
