Community Highlight

Fall 2004 --

What makes the Woodlawn GEAR UP Parent Program so successful?

The parents know. They've taken charge, and there's no stopping them now.

Through guided workshops and seminars, parents have been learning each year to take on more responsibility for the planning and development of the family programs this network offers.
