The Advisory Board allows parents, community representatives and educators to meet on a quarterly basis to discuss the program and make recommendations about programming and educational initiatives. KAP publishes a monthly newsletter which has news about each program, elementary, middle school, high school and post secondary, as well as a feature article either written by or featuring a KAP participant. In addition, the high school parents meet on a monthly basis for a ‘Dinner and Conversation with …’. This is an informal way to assist parents so they can gain the information they need to become effective advocates for their child. While the teenager is participating in the Teen Council meeting and social activity, the parents are in the university dining facility; discussing a topic they selected with a faculty member or agency staff.
