PROGRAMS
By offering a variety of culturally responsive programs, The Concilio aims to help the North Texas community succeed and thrive in their daily lives. We partner with schools, districts, and communities to help parents and their children thrive.
EDUCATIONAL ADVANCEMENT
Our culturally responsive, evidence-based programs are led by trusted facilitators — many of them former participants — who build strong relationships with families.
We support Latino parents in becoming active partners in their children’s education, both at home and in school. All programs are offered in English and Spanish to ensure access for every family.
Parents advocating for student excellence (pase)
PASE is a free program that equips parents with the knowledge and tools to support their children’s academic success and path to college or higher education.
Parents learn how to navigate the public school system, understand graduation requirements, communicate with teachers, and boost their child’s confidence.
Offered in English and Spanish, PASE includes courses for parents of students in elementary, middle, and high school.
PROVEN IMPACT
Students whose parents completed PASE have a 90.2% high school graduation rate, with 78% pursuing post-secondary education—well above the county average.
