San Juan Unified serves 42,000 students and families in 64 schools in Eastern Sacramento County. The Family and Community Engagement Dept. (FACE) supports family leadership, advocacy and education, builds partnerships with community agencies, businesses, faith-based groups and our schools and assists our Division of Teaching and Learning in infusing evidence-based family engagement strategies into district initiatives. One of our main responsibilities is working with upset parents/guardians and community members to mediate issues and assist them in advocating for their children.
