[Steve Bean]

For those of you working in the broader field of youth development, as
well as technology education, you might be interested in this monograph
we just published:

ETR Associates is pleased to announce the release of its latest
publication on parent-child connectedness titled:  "Parent-Child
Connectedness:  Voices of African-American and Latino Parents and
Teens."   
 
This latest report summarizes findings from an ETR focus group study
conducted in 2004 with a total of 135 African-American and Latino
parents and teens living in low-income neighborhoods.  A total of 16
focus groups were conducted in San Diego, Sacramento, Baltimore, Miami
and Long Island.
