The United States Department of Agriculture/Cooperative State Research,
Education and Extension Services (USDA/CSREES), in partnership withThe

The 2005 Family Life E-seminar on Grandparents Raising Grandchildren

caregivers the following information:
-
Most of the
panelist papers and all of the handouts developed for the e-seminar;
-
The video clips
that were shared during the e-seminar that illustrate the
experiences of custodial grandparents and suggestions for program to
support them;
-
The compiled
discussion by topic and by session in PDF format so you can print

A complete
directory (sorted by state) of all the e-seminar participants – we
hope this will help you connect to other professionals within and
outside of your state who are doing programming in this area; and
-
