Marriage Tip of the Month
March 7
In time married couples work out a division of labor between them. Usually it's based on skills, interest, and time. Neither females nor males, however, are biologically better suited to cleaning the toilet. Is there a job you hate? Try switching for a day.

The Faith & Politics Institute's Weekly Reflection
For the week of March 19, 2012
A Blessing for Work
In honor of the Celtic tradition of spirituality celebrated on St. Patrick's Day and in honor of St. Joseph, the patron saint of workers whose feast day is today, we offer the friends of The Faith & Politics Institute this Irish blessing for a fruitful week, no matter your occupation or vocation:

"May the light of your soul bless your work with love and warmth of heart.

May you see in what you do the beauty of your soul.

May the sacredness of your work bring light and renewal to those who work with you and to those who see and receive your work.

May your work never exhaust you.

May it release wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration, and excitement.

May you never become lost in bland absences.

May the day never burden.

May dawn find hope in your heart, approaching your new day with dreams, possibilities, and promises.

May evening find you gracious and fulfilled."  

     ---John O'Donohue, To Bless the Space Between Us:  A Book of Blessings

SHM

The Supporting Healthy Marriage Evaluation:  Interim Impacts on Low-Income Families

OPRE released an interim impact report from the Supporting Healthy Marriage (SHM) evaluation. This evaluation involves eight demonstration programs across the country that provided services under the SHM model, which included marriage and relationship education sessions and support services. Over 6,000 low-income couples enrolled in the study. The interim report presents 12-month impacts of the SHM demonstrations on a range of measures such as couples’ relationship status and quality, positive and negative interactions, co-parenting and psychological well-being. The project is being conducted by MDRC and its subcontractors, Abt Associates, Child Trends, Optimal Solutions Group, and Public Strategies, Inc. The report can be found at http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/opre/strengthen/support_hlthymarr/index.html and a press release can be found at http://www.acf.hhs.gov/news/press/2012/ACFMarriagePrgStudy.html.

Hi Bill,

 

I appreciate receiving your “Scoop.it” articles related to NARME.  I’ve attached an article from a local community newspaper about the “On My Shoulders” fatherhood curriculum (from PREP,Inc.) that I’m presently offering in our area.

 

I wasn’t sure how to “post” something to the site, so I’m emailing it in case someone is interested in learning more about my experience and how it is helping dads.

 

Thank you!
