| Description |
We will set up classes that are six weeks long, one hour a week sessions, and there will be pre and post tests for participating parents.
We will track the families, provide books and specilized age approprate classes as needed. We hope to serve 70 to 80 families annually. Our classes use videos, practice in class, handouts, homework and we reward with certificates of success.
We employ two teachers, furnish a home like setting and offer schools our curriculum and as needed-- our teachers.
There are two follow up visits for families who are successful and who qualify.
Our specially trained CASA Advocates are also used for followup and are involved with the classes with the clients.
Mentoring families who are at risk for their children being removed by the state and placed in foster care is our main concern. We save hundreds of thousands of tax payer dollars if we are able to keep these children at home and not send them through the "system."
Help us train as many parents as possible in the next year and make a difference in our community, our families and in our state.
