Abstract
The study overviews a university-based event that brought 75 HMong parents onto a college campus to increase their knowledge and efficacy about supporting their child in college. Parents completed a pre- and post-event survey, which included three researcher-developed scales addressing HMong parent’s efficacy beliefs, their role and support, and what they knew about their child’s college. Assessment via parent and total group was examined to determine change in parental knowledge and beliefs in their abilities to assist their child. Findings from this study support the need for increased community programming to support HMong parents’ to best support their child’s education.
