Don't forget to send us any photos or event followup after your event. Thank you to all of you who support Parental Alienation Awareness and our U.S. Governors campaign!

Together we can make a difference and stop this form of child abuse.

WOW 15 States & the Islands of Bermuda

Over 30% of all USA Governors have either proclaimed or recognized parental alienation as a behavioral form of child abuse. PAAO-US members appreciate all Governors for recognizing these abusive behaviors and wishes to thank each State representative for putting forth the effort to obtain their Governors signed proclamation.

Please take the time to write to these Governors in support of stopping parental alienation across the United States.

**This is the first PAPA/MAMA group fundraiser to help children experiencing Parental Alienation. This is our opportunity to fight back against the pain of Parental Alienation by empowering groups of children to better deal with the grief associated with divorce. Although the peer groups are offered to families without charge, there is a one time cost to purchase the rights to use the program at each site and materials costs for the games and workbooks the children use during the programs.

Also, volunteers will be needed to facilitate the peer groups once we have a trainer.

Please contact Maureen Tannetta, mtannetta2002@yahoo.com if you would like to be trained or could volunteer one hour a week to facilitate a youth peer group for twelve weeks in the Metro West area of Boston. If you are outside this area and would like to contribute, please send donations to:
