Be a Part of the Movement, Today: Help Us Make Sure Children From Broken Homes Do Not Lead Broken Lives

June 11, 2012

You heard it - there are 2.7 million children nationwide being cared for by their grandparents and other relatives. Even more grandparents are supporting their grandchildren by providing day care, transportation, and even financial support. Thousands of grandparents fight every day to hold onto healthy relationships with their grandchildren as parents relationships change.

The National Committee of Grandparents for Children's Rights is working hard to address these issues - and be there for these many families. Won't you be a part of the movement? Join the Grassroots Network and find out about upcoming events, webinar trainings, and Grandparent Leadership opportunities. Be a part of it all and help us show our policy-makers that these issues matter. 

Both individuals and organizations can join. Here are the highlights for individuals:

• A monthly e-newsletter with all of the latest and greatest information on grandparents, kinship care, and other important family issues.
• Discounted or free trainings on a variety of topics, including issues related to grandparenting, parenting a second time around, child abuse, legal issues for grandparents, and more.
• A free subscription to GRAND Magazine, the online magazine for grandparents and one of the best media resources for grandparents on the internet.
• An annual mailing including information on what your dues have accomplished, and how you can continue to support families across the nation.
