In this episode, we chat with the head of Parent Shield Fort Worth, a literacy advocacy initiative empowering parents to understand their children's literacy levels and nurture their growth. Join us as Trenace Dorsey-Hollins, Parent Shield founder, shares her personal journey learning to advocate for her child and other children and parents in her community. Get ready to learn the difference between good grades and true academic preparation.

Trenace's narrative is an inspiring call to action—encouraging you to ensure your own child's success and advocate for parents who might be unaware that their children aren't on the path to literacy.
