Mission Statement

It is the Mission of this site to elevate the bond of Caring Grandparents with their Grandchildren to even more meaningful connections. This can be achieved by education through stories and examples of things that are currently working between Grandparents and their Grandchildren in the 21st Century.

In recognition of the evolving times, it is increasingly important to gain insight into the social, educational, and spiritual well-being of our grandchildren. As we improve our understanding of Grandparents’ Rights and Responsibilities, we will enhance the well-being of our grandchildren, children, and the entire extended family.
