Special thanks are due to the many religious organizations that participated in the development of this book. Those who allowed us to use their programs as examples contributed greatly to the value of this book for others in the field. Those who took the time to read the earlier drafts and share their experiences and expertise with us are sincerely thanked. Religious and community group members of the Partnership for Family Involvement in Education were invaluable in providing feedback from the perspective of those in the field.
