“We are incredibly grateful to Art Van for providing the base funding for our innovative and high impact PEP program.  The program exceeded our parent’s and our agency’s expectations in terms of parental engagement and commitment to the learning and application process.  Over nine months, I personally observed dozens of families move from viewing parenting as a stressful chore to experiencing the joy of their children.  Old habits were replaced with effective tools.  One mother talked about the pleasure she now finds in doing cartwheels with her daughter!”
