The Third Circle of Support
Families in Action
Futures for Children with the work of our founder, Dr. Richard Saunders, in a rural community in South America. Dr Saunders asked members of the community a simple question, "What would make life better for your children?" From this simple inquiry, the community began brainstorming ideas and initiating community projects to address problems and concerns.
Today, Futures for Children provides training to community members based on Dr. Saunders' facilitation techniques. The trained facilitators work with parents and family members guiding them in ways to become more involved in the education of their children.
The Famlies in Action program is designed to encourage parents and guardians to create a positive and encouraging home environment that promotes academic success and healthy relationships. Families in Action allows parents to identify obstacles, then build resources and find solutions that support their children’s educational achievement.
