*A Reference Note on The 4 Crucial Cs

Alfred Adler identified the four core needs: belong, improve, significance, encouragement. Ansbacher, H. L., & Ansbacher, R. R. 1956. The Individual Psychology of Alfred Adler, Basic Books. New York. 

Betty Lou Bettner and Amy Lew translated Adler’s core needs into the Crucial Cs: Connect, Capable, Count, Courage. Bettner, B.L. & Lew, A. 1989. Raising Kids Who Can. Connexions Press. MA.

Why a Learning Community for Parents?

Research shows that adult learning happens best through conversation and experience. Exploring ideas together in a safe, connected space helps us to discover and apply new ideas and approaches. The important work of raising families is worthy of this kind of space. Together we can grow, experiment, and become the parents we want to be.

Who’s Invited?

Parents, Teachers, Caregivers, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Neighbors and anyone who wants to connect about raising and collectively supporting children. Family Leadership Center supports the work of raising children to grow up able to function and contribute in a meaningful way. Together, we are raising kids to one day support a strong family, community, and ultimately a thriving democracy.
