However, immigrant parents face language and cultural barriers in relation to finding resources and connecting with their child's school experience. What's more, untrained educators battle to reach parents from different socioeconomic backgrounds. "Here is the good news we all know that it's possible to, with the correct materials, framework, and training, for teachers to connect with parents from many parts of society," Del Monte said.

In Los Angeles classrooms with Latino parents, Del Monte said that she struggled to make curriculum engaging. She couldn't even find the proper bilingual books, as publishers were routinely running out and declining to reprint the constituents that the curriculum required.

They are sold to individuals online in addition to institutions like schools and libraries.
