Children are our most valuable asset. Their care and protection is of vital importance to us all. Ensuring parents are informed in a timely and accurate manner is not just good to do, it is imperative in today’s environment.

There are messages that need to be delivered with no specific urgency, and if the parent doesn’t happen to get it, while important, it is not critical.

However, in today’s world there are critical messages that must get to parents quickly and only to the parents. At these times, messages must "find the parent" using all of their contact alternatives (their personal contact tree). This would include multiple phone numbers and emails. And the parent needs to confirm that they received the message so the school can clearly know who will be there to pick-up their children and who didn’t get found to hear their message!

Additionally, with multiple households responsible for a single child, changing jobs, phone numbers, email addresses and so many other changes, it is virtually impossible for the school to maintain and guarantee accuracy without the parent having responsibility for their information. Allowing parents to update their information at anytime, a child’s caretaker can always be reached immediately.

Other services, simply place calls and leave voicemails or send automated faxes. These alternatives don’t ensure the parent actually hears the message. Call centers, automated calling services and fax services can only assure you that they tried to send the message. The school can’t possibly know when parents will show up to pick up their children in critical situations. For mass emails to the parents "old" mailboxes, again, there is no certainty the parent even receives the message, and there is certainly no confirmation that the parent ever read the message.

With 2Unify, the school can immediately see each parent that has and hasn’t heard the message with certainty. This knowledge allows the school to take care of each child appropriately and to manage next steps with clarity.

Children are kept safe and parents are informed and involved.

Within a school, groups can be established by classrooms or other groups as appropriate for each school. 2Unify is uniquely capable of allowing a parent to be a member of multiple groups; and they only need to maintain their contact information in one place. This capability is part of 2Unify’s patented technology.

Further, if there are multiple parents responsible for a single child in a class, they can both be added to the group and can maintain their information independently. Further, all parent and group information can be maintained confidentiality with complete privacy.

By having the parent maintain their information in only one place, this helps ensure their information is current and it improves the probability of the parent actually maintaining their contact information.

Further, the school can see discretely each group’s parents responses. With this information the school can make decisions based on accurate information received in real-time. The service costs to perform calls and emails, should be close to today’s school costs.
