Dear
Friend,
Please
consider designating your United Way contribution this year to
Equal Parents for Children.
We
strive to be a leader in providing education and support services
to persons dealing with Divorce, Custody and Parenting Time dilemmas.
By
selecting Donor Designation #1583 and writing in "Equal
Parents for Children",
your contribution will be directed towards continuing and growing
our:
- Speaker
Series, which brings in Experts from Rochester and surrounding
areas to inform, educate, and enlighten members and guests on
Court Procedures, Laws, Obligations, Legal Reform, Coping Skills
and Successful Alternatives to Litigation.
-
Public Education & Awareness, which funds the proactive
education of local divorce and family law experts through targeted
distribution of information on the latest issues affecting our
children.
- Web
Site Development, which will enhance our current web site,
www.equalparentsforchildren.org,
to better meet the needs of its audience through proactive maintenance
and upgrades.
- Conference
Funding, which enables EPC board members to stay educated
on current issues through two-way interfacing with Government
Officials and like-minded representatives of National Organizations.
- Research
and Education, In 2011 EPC is partnering with The Greater
Rochester Collaborative Masters of Social Work Program, which
is a collaboration between Nazareth College and The College
at Brockport that educates Masters level Social Workers, to
begin an assessment of providers to persons' going through divorce/custody
issues and those who are accessing those services, to gauge
how the current system is working and what challenges need to
be met. Students in a "capstone" course known as The
Masters Project will survey the identified constituents in this
issue and in the end will provide a report on their findings
that will be available to the public for review.
- Needed
Help, which allows EPC to use technology to assist the public
and allow us to do more with less resources as an all volunteer
organization. Please consider joining EPC as a volunteer in
order to provide excellent service to our community.
Progress is slowly being made concerning equality in our court
systems. Please join us in the journey to ensure that our children
benefit from the involvement of both parents, despite the disruption
and difficulties presented by divorce and separation.
Sincerely,
Mark
