Dr. Anthony Biglan- The Nurture Effect and recent post

Elizabeth Cameron 1/19/175:49 AM

Hi there everyone- please check out Dr. Biglan's book The Nurture Effect: How the Science of Human Behavior Can Improve Our Lives and Our World. Very practical!

As well Dr. Biglan offered the following blog post recently that regardless of your political orientation I hope that you will be able to find value in the core message.

Additionally if you haven't had the opportunity to explore David Sloan Wilson's book- The Neighborhood Project: Using Evolution to Improve My City, One Block at a Time- it is very useful for many of us across the country and globe working to increase resilience, improve our communities, and reduce ACE's.

And please consider the Great Kindness Challenge to help increase acts of kindness in your neighborhood/school.

Thank you!

Here, in Yamhill County, Oregon, we are working with Tony Biglan to implement several of his programs in our schools through our Community Prevention and Wellness Initiative -

If you haven't read his book, I recommend you give it a glance, he's doing some cutting edge programs and we are so very grateful to be able to work with him.
