| Index of Belonging and Rejection Press Conference Click here to register for the Index of Belonging and Rejection Release. DOES YOUR STATE FOSTER BELONGING OR REJECTION? You are invited to be a part of the Thursday, November 17, 2011 Speakers include:
There are two ways to participate: Live broadcast via the internet, or on location! Most American teenagers' parents have rejected each other, through divorce, separation, or choosing not to marry, and rates of parental rejection vary significantly across ethnic and regional backgrounds. When parents belong to each other in marriage, children thrive most. The more parents reject each other (in divorce or never marrying), the less children thrive. The Index of Belonging and Rejection delves into all of these statistics and rank-orders the states and the 25 largest cities by the strength of belonging in their family, showing that less than 50 percent of American children reach adulthood having grown up in an intact married family. Belonging and rejection within the family have significant impacts on the strength of the nation and its communities, as well as on America's future leadership capacity. This second release of the Index of Family Belonging and Rejection delves into the relationship between the Belonging Index and the issues of poverty, educational attainment and teenage out of wedlock births. For those who would like to watch it live online, and then log on at 12:00 pm EST to watch the live webcast! 12:00-1:00 Release
