Abstract	This training guide is designed to build the capacity of Head Start staff to make the program's renewed vision for parent involvement a reality for every parent and program. The guide contains three modules, each with two activities designed for workshop presentation, followed by two or more coaching activities. Module 1 defines parent involvement and contains activities to promote greater daily interaction between parents and staff. Module 2 focuses on individualizing parent involvement, using activities to promote staff interaction with children and families and a sense of belonging among these individuals. Module 3 presents parent involvement as a shared responsibility, using activities that increase effective listening skills to support parent involvement and to form collaborative staff relationships, and that use consensus building to create common understanding of the program's strengths in parent involvement. Following each set of activities within a module is a section outlining suggested activities designed to provide participants with opportunities to apply the information and skills learned in training situations in their daily lives. The final sections contain activities and sources for supplemental information to assist supervisors in extending learning opportunities. (CK)
