Idea Description

API's mission is to educate and support all parents in raising secure, joyful, and empathic children in order to strengthen families and create a more compassionate world. AP nurtures a child’s need for trust, empathy, and affection, providing a lifelong foundation for healthy enduring relationships and well being. API proposes to make its parent education widely accessible to prospective participants with a broad network of facilitators. API's microenterprise revolving fund program will train qualified instructors, help them with planning, and support them with needed business training and materials. Instructors will benefit from API's resources, network of Leaders, and support groups.

What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?

First, API will thank Ideablob and all of its supporters! Then, API will begin a program to take applications from prospective instructors and qualify those meeting the criteria to prepare to begin training. The $10K will serve to cover the costs of the applicants training and materials to get started with their own parent education consulting business. It will also cover their expenses to collect and provide information back to the instructors data about their impact and evaluation. Applicants will be set up on a payment plan to pay back into the fund so that more facilitators may become parent education facilitators. API will promote the program through www.attachmentparenting.org.
