Magazine looking for participants in a mom Congress

Parenting magazine this May will convene the first Mom Congress on Education and Learning at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. in hopes of encouraging parents to become more involved in their children’s education.

If you or a mom you know has made a real difference in improving schools, nominate them. Parenting wants to hear about it.

The magazine will be selecting one outstanding mom advocate from every state and the District of Columbia to attend the two-day conference.

The goal is to create Parenting’s Lesson Plan for Change, which will help empower parents nationwide to get more involved in schools.

The moms will receive round-trip airfare, a two-night hotel stay and the opportunity to connect with other mom’s across the country.

Applications will be accepted through March 15.
