Introduction
The Victoria Confederation of Parent Advisory Councils (VCPAC) and the Greater Victoria School District believe that strong parent involvement supports student success. Parents bring valuable insight, energy, and commitment to their school communities. Through parent education opportunities, the School District and VCPAC affirm their shared commitment to fostering informed, connected, and engaged families.

Funding Purpose:
This fund is made possible through funding provided by the Greater Victoria School District, with additional support from VCPAC. Together, these funds create the Parent Education Fund, which is dedicated to helping Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) host parent education events that build community, support learning, and enhance parent engagement.

Grants:
Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) within the Greater Victoria School District may apply to the VCPAC Parent Education Fund for financial support of parent education initiatives.
●   Each individual PAC may apply for up to $250 per year.
●   PACs may collaborate on joint events and combine their funding requests.
●   On a case-by-case basis, applications requesting more than $250 or PACs requesting more than $250 per year may be brought to a VCPAC general meeting for approval.

Eligible expenses may include, but are not limited to:
●   Workshop facilitator fees or honorariums
●   Registration fees for parent education events
●   Resources or materials that support parent education
Applications are accepted throughout the school year on an ongoing basis. PACs are encouraged to apply in advance of planned events to ensure timely review and funding support.

Once VCPAC receives the funds from the district, we will begin distributing them. In the meantime, you are welcome to fill out this form and send it to info@vcpac.ca to be added to the list.
