Acknowledgements

A project like this doesn't happen without the involvement and support of many different organizations, groups, and individuals. I must first thank all the people across the country who have embraced this project since it started, and have enthusiastically subscribed and participated. That's the only way we can all work together to make a difference.

I'd like to thank the Parenting Coalition and Generations United in Washington, DC. Margaret Anderson-Herrmann at United Generations Ontario has also provided ongoing information and support.

The contributions and support of our other special partners are also deeply appreciated -- Lane Furniture, MyFamily.com, Geezer.com, IBM, and Books Are Fun (Reader's Digest).

For their support and for providing insights into the special needs of functionally impaired older adults and the needs of assisted living/care facilities, I would like to thank: Jim Mertz, Barb Hartmann, Valerie Sneller, Amy Stegall, and Carolyn Anderson of the Good Samaritan Society; Mary Anne Clagett at Creative Forecasting; and Karen Schaefer at CanGO Quarterly.

Finally, I would like to thank the ever hardworking, dedicated core team at The Communication Project, Douglas Bosak and Brian Puppa.
