The Parent Ambassador Program (PAP) was created by RIDE/PPSD in response to family feedback from the John Hopkins report. The PAP Objective is to enhance the district offices' welcoming, inclusive, safe, and supportive environment.

• Bridge the gap between schools and families
• Represent family voice at school-level meetings
• Attend community events, support PTO and PAC meetings 
• Disseminate timely information about school decisions, surveyworks support and events
• Serve as a point of contact, addressing family members' questions, and guiding them to appropriate resources
• Collaborate with school leaders and other appropriate school staff.
• Parent Ambassadors are volunteers, and they are appointed by a school administrator.
