Follow-Up Survey of New York City
Department of Education Parent Coordinators

Summary: Five years after the Office of the Public Advocate (OPA) first surveyed the New York City Department of Education’s (DOE) school-based Parent Coordinators and four years after the initial follow-up, the majority of Parent Coordinators surveyed are more difficult to reach and
less likely than ever to respond to parent calls.
