Research shows that the single most important factor that differentiates high performing students from low performing students is parental involvement. But about 70 percent of U.S. working men and women say that do not spend enough time with their families.

What can your organization do?  You can begin to become a “family friendly” company with several easy steps:

• Listen and document the needs and complaints of your co-workers and employees.
• Schedule a brown bag lunch forum to identify the needs of your employees and create a wish list.
• Create an action plan
• Join our mailing list to receive ideas and tips on increasing the family-friendly environment of your workplace.
• Let us help you implement our comprehensive 9 Steps to Success Program.

Employers see a return on their investment in higher retention rates, improved employee morale and increased productivity.

Today, the Brian Klinefelter Foundation works to decrease youth violence by promoting programs that help to grow great kids. The Foundation recently launched it Family-Friendly Workplace Initiative to foster stronger families, stronger businesses and stronger communities.
