Years from Now it will not matter what
my bank account was, the type of house I lived
in, or the kind of car I drove, but the world may
be different because I was important in the life
of a CHILD!

What
others are saying:
"Before
we started, yelling was our tool of choice. I have realized
that that doesn't work. My son signed us up for the program-
he told me we had to do it because he didn't want to be
yelled at anymore. Now that we've done the program, I'm
not yelling and he's giving hugs and kisses.The childcare
was so important. I couldn't have done it without the childcare."
-Mom,
Nurturing Program
"I
was raised in a traditional family- very hierarchical parenting-
and I just assumed that was how my family would be run.
I assumed that my kids would just do what I say. I'm learning
that that's not working for us and I'm really glad that
I could come and participate."
