Advocates in Parenting (AIP) sponsors its lunchtime Road Map Series, which is designed to offer parents and professionals a guide and tools to use as they navigate the various challenges that children and families experience.
Borrowing from the concept that ‘knowledge is power’, the more parents can understand the impact that grief has had on their child, as well as themselves, the more they can set the course for healthy healing. Education about the needs of grieving children & families will be provided. In addition, strategies and tools for coping with the challenges of grief will be highlighted.

Resilience is the companion film to Paper Tigers, which follows a year in the life of an alternative high school in Washington State who radically changed its approach to student discipline, with radically positive results. Resilience chronicles the birth of a new movement among pediatricians, therapists, educators and communities, who are using cutting-edge brain science to disrupt cycles of violence, addiction and disease.
