LEVEL 1 SUGGESTIONS

Requires less time and involvement  

  • WATCH: For inspiration
  • VOTE & DONATE: To campaigns that support our mission “Preserving Parental Rights & Medical Choice”
  • ATTEND: BOE meetings at your school, check your town’s BOE website for details (for Greenwich, CT – Central Middle School or via zoom) 
  • JOIN (and stay informed): Concerned CT Parents; Children’s Health Defense; Moms for Liberty
  • ENGAGE: Parents, Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts, Friends, Alumni (tell them what’s going on and how they can help)
  • MOST IMPORTANTLY:​ Tell people they’re not alone and connect them with other parents

 

LEVEL 2 SUGGESTIONS

Requires more time and involvement, but is extremely powerful.  Much of this is supporting our children and reminding politicians and administrators that they work for us.

  • TALK – To your child; tell them your concerns about what’s going on and what to be aware of at the school; let them know you’re there for them
  • RESEARCH – Find out more about the people and experts who are making important decisions at your school; if the findings are concerning share with other parents or your Concerned CT Parents School Rep
