We know that today, more than ever, grandparents are playing a central role in caring for young children. With this in mind, it is essential that grandparents, like parents, receive the most up-to-date information on child development and at the same time, receive support and encouragement.
Hosted by Maya Angelou in English and Don Francisco in Spanish, Grandparenting: Enriching Lives provides grandparents with the latest information on child development, as well as guidance, ideas and support for their essential role in the lives of their children and grandchildren.
"Grandparents are more necessary today than they have been in the last 100 years. Young people have to have a sense of foundation and grandparents can provide the roots."
- Dr. Maya Angelou
"The grandparenting video showcases some of the joys and challenges facing grandparents today in a very understandable and relevant way."
- Arthur Kornhaber, MD, President and Founder, Foundation for Grandparenting
"The tips in the grandparenting video are simple, inexpensive and stress the importance of investing time and love in children. (Civitas is) providing excellent tools that can help all of us become "blue ribbon" parents and grandparents."
- Barbara Rawn, M.A., Director of Prevention Programs, Prevent Child Abuse America
