NCFR WEEKLY ZIPPY NEWS Week of June 29, 2009 ======== ...
NCFR Former NCFR President and U of MN professor Bill Doherty has spearheaded a community/citizen effort that has recently gained new national attention as it has been added to the MDLinx system. Say Doherty, “Parent education needs a wider lens for viewing parents not only as child rearers but also as citizens concerned with public issues affecting all of our children. In this project we learned that parents care deeply about what's going on in their communities and the wide culture, that they enjoy deliberating on these issues as part of regular parenting classes, and that they are willing to take personal and collective action on public pressure points in their lives.” Check out this project, click on "publications."
