Everyone,

"Family Matters" on BlogTalk Radio - Wed April 18 at 1700h MST

"Family Matters with Jill Egizii on BlogTalk Radio - Wed April 18 at 1700h MST

 This is an opportunity to hear from Dr. Reay on "Family Matters" via BlogTalk Radio.  Dr Reay is "right next door" in beautiful Penticton, BC and has developed a workbook to help parents deal with Parental Alienation.

 It is hoped that some aspects of PA will be included in the new "Family Law Act" being developed in B.C.

 For more info about Dr Reay go to her website - http://www.parentalalienationhelp.org/

New name

This is to initiate a new name - PAAN or Parental Alienation Awareness Network of Alberta - due to concern about losing CRA Charitable status of former affiliation PAAO or Parental Alienation Awareness Organization - if we engaged in any political advocacy or formed a support group.  There was also the matter of what value exactly PAAO was providing to Albertan's except for an international "franchising" operation.

I have come to believe that there is more demand for political action than a support group - and we do not receive any funding from PAAO I do not see the point in being restricted by their concerns or operational parameters.

Hence PAAN!

Please get in touch on any topic you wish - and tell me if you plan to hold an event for PAAD (Parental Alienation Awareness Day) in week of April 25, 2012.

Regards,
