Educate Tomorrow’s Parents (ETP) is now a part of history. We are proud to have been included in Nothing More Important, a newly published two-volume compendium of school-based parenting education initiatives in the United Kingdom and the United States. The author and trained psychotherapist, Ros Kane, has impressively described the approaches and results of programs across five centuries of initiatives.
When I founded ETP twenty years ago, I would have loved having this kind of resource to draw upon! To see our work included now is both humbling and inspiring. It’s a reminder that the impact of ETP extends beyond the teens we serve today.
We hope future policy and social initiatives will be able to reference ETP’s successful implementation of programs, and then enhance and exponentially expand these efforts to empower more teens and protect more children.

ETP is featured in two places in Volume Two
You can access those sections here:
- Part Four: Who is doing what in the U.S. – Chapter 19 (pages 224-230 in the print edition)
- Part Seven: Evidence, evaluation and feedback – Chapter 30 (pages 412-414 in the print edition)
Ms. Kane’s charitable organization, Before Becoming a Parent, has generously made both volumes available for download in their entirety at www.beforebecomingaparent.org/our-books.
Volume One – Teaching parenthood in schools: Five centuries of heartfelt advocates
Volume Two – How to prepare children and young people at school to be good parents
