This program assists those who wish to pay down debt, build an emergency fund, save for a home, save for an education, or save for retirement. Research shows that there are "savers" and "spenders" in all income classes. While those with modest incomes cannot save as much as the affluent, almost all have the ability to build wealth over time. Through contributions to a workplace retirement program, home purchase, and other savings, during their working years most can accumulate six-figure assets. The goal of the campaign is to convince all Americans that they can build wealth and to assist them in doing so.

Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) For more information on Missouri's adoption programs you can send e-mail to or call Viginia Lewis-Brunk, adoption coordinator at (816) 889-2042. Back to DFS Home Page Adoption Subsidy Program Program Description The basic goal of the Missouri Adoption Subsidy Program is to encourage the adoption of children with "special needs." More specifically, this program is intended to assist families that could not otherwise afford, through their own income and resources, to meet the cost of adopting a "special needs" child. Subsidy payments are made to meet the needs of the adopted child. Thus, while the resources and circumstances of the adoptive parents are considered in determining the services needed and the amount of the subsidy, no family is determined to be ineligible simply because of their income or resources. Adoption subsidy payments are available for an eligible child who is under the age of 18 at the time of the child's placement for adoption. Such paments may continue until the child is 18 or, in special situations, until the child is 21. In addition, if a child is placed in another state, or if a child moves from Missouri with his adopted family, the subsidy payments may continue.

October 1996, Vol. 30, No. 8 Focus . . . Family Planning in Missouri Introduction: Need for Family Planning Services Unintended pregnancy, especially unintended childbearing, has important consequences not only for the individuals involved but also for the society as a whole. The individual woman may face decreased life opportunities and/or economic hardship as a result of an unintended pregnancy. In addition, higher rates of poor outcomes (low birth weight, infant mortality) and poor prenatal behavior (inadequate prenatal care and substance abuse) are associated with unintended pregnancies. Unintended pregnancies accounted for over half (57.3 percent) of all pregnancies in the United States in 1987. Half of these unintended pregnancies end in induced terminations and half result in live births. The proportion of births resulting from unintended pregnancies increased from 37 percent in 1982 to 44 percent in 1990. In Missouri the proportion of births resulting from unintended pregnancies may be even higher. Provision of family planning services to women at risk of unintended pregnancy thus becomes of vital importance. Missouri is close to the national estimated rate for both the percentages of all women age (13-44) at risk of unintended pregnancy (48.4 Missouri, 49.4 United States) and of all women in need of organized or subsidized contraceptive services (25.6 Missouri, 24.4 U.S.). In this report we look at family planning data reported by clinics funded through state general revenue (GR) funds and many clinics funded by Title V. Because of shortfalls in data completeness, minorities, who mostly reside in Missouri's major cities, are under represented in this file.

Search: Home State Family Literacy Policy Literacy Investment for Tomorrow The Missouri LIFT Initiative, Literacy Investment for Tomorrow (different from the federal LIFT act, Literacy Involves Families Together), provides professional development and technical assistance to all of Missouri's family literacy programs, including Even Start sites. LIFT also serves as the spearhead of the Missouri Family Literacy Initiative, which is working to coordinate the efforts of agencies and organizations providing services necessary for successful family literacy programs. ESL Family Literacy ESL Family Literacy is an administrative initiative of the Division of School Improvement and the Division of Vocational and Adult Education of the state Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. The initiative began in 2000 to fund four model family literacy programs. These programs are based on the Even Start model, but with a focus on serving families in need of ESL instruction. Currently the four sites serve Bosnian, Russian and Spanish speaking families. Funding comes directly from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's budget. Family Literacy in Public Schools House Bill 1711 , signed into law by Gov. Bob Holden on June 26, 2002, integrates family literacy into the state's public education system as a strategy to meet the educational needs of adults with low literacy skills and their children. HB 1711 encourages school districts, especially those that are low performing or unaccredited, to establish family literacy programs to serve families with children of all ages. It permits schools to use their general funds to fund family literacy programs. In addition, the bill defines family literacy in terms consistent with the federal, four-component definition. Family literacy personnel are included in a funding set aside for professional development. Beginning in Fiscal Year 2005, 1.5 percent, approximately $5.3 million, of the at-risk portion of the school funding formula will be used to fund family literacy programs in schools.

Its programs are designed to support the growth and development of children and their families by providing parenting education, early childhood education, counseling, and other opportunities to build family connections within the school community. Click here for ... History Open Times Philosophy Parents as Teachers ... Parent Education Programs History Philosophy The Clayton Schools' Family Center program believes that a positive parent-child relationship is the core of a healthy and productive family. It is the family that has primary responsibility for fostering a child's emotional, intellectual and physical growth from the very important early years through adolescence. Because children receive an abundance of nurturing and education in the context of the family, it is possible to positively affect the growth of the child by understanding and supporting the entire family system. Family experiences are the foundations for success in school and in every other facet of life. Successful parenting requires creativity, intelligence, emotional stability, connection and capacity for growth. It also requires conscious examination of parenting practices. Too often, the critical parent-child relationship develops in isolation with little support from community. All parents, regardless of economic status, education, racial or ethnic background, benefit from opportunities to share experiences and information with each other, to learn about their child's development and to receive help in clarifying their parenting issues.

Jeff Christen-Mitchell and his family Jeff is running against Mike Crist in the Libertarian Primary this August for the privilege of facing Dick Gephardt in November. The Missouri Libertarian Party has a program for strengthening Missouri's families: we want to increase personal responsibility and maximize personal liberty by dismantling the government programs which have destroyed the institution of the family. We believe in the citizens of Missouri, and we know that the responsible citizens of the Show-Me State will care for their children and their elderly parents if they are relieved of the burden of costly, inefficient bureaucratic social services programs. For the politicians of the other parties: which do you believe in, an income tax or Missouri's families? The Missouri Libertarian Party comes down strongly on the side of the family.

Restrictions A Guide to Shaw Nature Reserve Dana Brown Overnight Education Center Plant and Animal Communities ... Education Programs Shaw Nature Reserve, an extension of the Missouri Botanical Garden, includes 2,500 acres of natural Ozark landscape and managed plant collections. Located 35 miles southwest of St. Louis in Gray Summit, Missouri, it provides environmental education, ecological research and public enjoyment of the natural world. The Nature Reserve was founded by the Garden in 1925 when coal smoke from the city threatened the living plant collections housed at the Garden. Though the orchid collection was moved to the Nature Reserve in 1926, pollution in the city cleared before it was necessary to move the entire plant collection. The diversity and size of the Nature Reserve, combined with the considerable scientific and educational resources of the Garden, provide a unique opportunity for outdoor education. Besides providing workshops and natural awareness walks for thousands of children and adults each year, the Nature Reserve serves as an outdoor laboratory for the development and testing of a variety of innovative outdoor interpretive programs. More recently the Nature Reserve has become a focus for the study of fire ecology and habitat restoration.
