Candidates for the 2016 presidential election would be doing a fine public service if they discussed how their administration will promote effective parenting and parenting education.

We at CICC have created a position paper to provide all candidates with research-based definitions and with examples of projects that would make America a more family-friendly nation. These can be used in policy statements and on the campaign trail.

A copy of this position paper is available here:

Effective Parenting and Parent Education_Presidential_2015

You are herein encouraged to question the candidates about effective parenting and parenting education using the ideas from this paper.
