Send a custom text to one or more families

LENA's texting feature lets LENA users create and send custom text messages to some or all families in a group. Examples might include:

  • weather-related last minute session changes
  • a relevant community resource or event
  • a reminder about something you've asked them to prepare

Note that these are one-way texts, meaning the families cannot reply.

Follow these steps to create and send texts.

1. Choose your group in the context drop-down.

2. In the LENA SP section of the main menu, click Send Text Messages.

3. Choose participants.

Choose all, one, or several children.

(Child must have at least one textable caregiver to be selected.)

4. Type your message in the Text Message box.
