It's time again for Prepare Tomorrow's Parents Month, from Mother's Day through Father's Day. This is an important opportunity for all educators and advocates of preparing children and teens for parenting to make a difference.

Some California resources for advocates have been developed in collaboration with Californians for Parenting Education in Schools (CAPES).

• Sample Op Ed to submit to California newspapers
  (see California opinion press list link below)
• Prepare Tomorrow's Parents Month Proclamation from the Board of Education of San Diego Unified School District.
