DELEWARE |
One of the ways we can effect change to
better our lives and those of our grandchildren is to write to our state
and federal representatives. If we have questions that demand answers these
are the people to ask. Grand Parent Again has developed these pages to
help you find the resources you need in your state.
Another way is to network with other Grandparents
facing the same problems we have. On the bottom of this page is listings
of support groups for your state. |

| The Director of a new Grandparent Resource Center in Wilmington, DE,
Amy Stausebach, has notified us that a program was started in the beginning
of September for grandparents and relative caregivers raising others' children.
She relayed to us that the grandparents can come there for all their needs.
The Center offers information and referrals for anything they might need,
for themselves and the children. They are the first center in the state
specifically for grandparents and other relative caregivers.
They offer a grandparent support group meeting once a week for all
those in the community to join together in this challenge and help each
other cope and resolve whatever issues may come up. This is the first support
group of it's kind, and there are plans to start more within the state
in the next 3 years.
In the small city of Wilmington, they have over 3,000 grandparent headed
households (and that was from the 1990 census!), so you can imagine the
need! It is a growing population in their area alone, so imagine the rest
of the country.
Please contact Amy Stausebach

additional information or help. |
