According to writer Dolores Curran "healthy families are our greatest national resource." But healthy families don't just happen. That's where family life educators come in. Their purpose is to help individuals and families learn the skills they need at all stages of the life cycle. In this issue, we explore how family life educators are meeting the needs of people in a variety of communities and settings - from the pediatrician's office to the local area agency on aging.
