To drive change in this area, C@R staff meets regularly with public officials, leaders in the academic community, and education agencies to discuss reform strategies. C@R educates the community on the need to improve the public education system through prominent media attention (press conferences, news stories, editorials, and articles), conducting and presenting research, and hosting an annual Education Reform Conference. C@R also draws public attention to outstanding public schools and raises awareness around the need for education reform through its annual Texas Public Schools Rankings. 249833 C@R established the Center for Parenting and Family Well-Being (CPFWB) in 2011. In its first phase, CPFWB took an inventory of the current network of parenting services in Houston, and found that there is a strong need for evidence-based parent education that is not punitive. Through a partnership including organizations that provide parent education services, pediatricians, academics, and public health practitioners, CPFWB determined that the community should move forward with developing structure to implement Positive Parenting Program (Triple P). During its second phase, the CPFWB is creating an infrastructure to disseminate Triple P across Harris County. 236854 Through its unique Food in Schools Initiative, C@R continues to raise awareness and advocate for the implementation of Universal Free School Breakfast (UFSB) in schools with high poverty levels. C@Rs research shows that children who eat breakfast regularly are significantly less likely to be overweight, since breakfast can help jump-start their metabolism, improve their nutritional well-being, and decrease overeating later in the day. After playing an instrumental role during the 2013 legislative session in the passage of SB 376, which expands UFSB in Texas poorest schools, C@R will look at the implementation of that law to ensure that students in these low-income schools receive a nutritious breakfast. 533692 6000 1800001 true true false true false false false false false true true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 38 0 true 28 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 36 35 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X X Dr Robert Sanborn 7138697740 2900 Weslayan Suite 400 Houston TX 77027 Robert Sanborn President & CEO 40.00 0.00 X X 175000 0 30577 Kyle Jennings Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Benjamin Samuels Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Erich Almonte Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Claire Bocchini Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Donald Bowers Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Erich Canseco Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Cordua Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Dokupil Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nancy Edgar Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kindel Elam Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lance Gilliam Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 William Gordon Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Christopher Greeley Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lauren Harrison Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Theresa Hildreth Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 George Hittner Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rebecca Hove Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Pam Humphrey Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steven Jones Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michelle Kelly Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Devika Kornbacher Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Maddie Kulkarni Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nicole Lewis Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tracy Maddox Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sidney Moncrief Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eve McFadden Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Timmy Newsome Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Roylance Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lynn Sessions Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sebastien Solar Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Buddy Steves Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brent Thomas Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ed Tufaro Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Watt Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Larry Wisniewski Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda Kimball Dir. of Pub Policy 40.00 0.00 X 125725 0 14602 Charolotte R Carlisle Director of NTX 40.00 0.00 X 110000 0 6518 410725 51697 3 false true false 0 503535 1999214 2502749 Education research fees 900099 202769 202769 Program initiative fees 900099 13244 13244 216013 1670 1670 0 0 0 0 65345 503535 113110 -47765 -47765 0 0 0 2672667 216013 -46095 6000 6000 0 0 0 205577 153064 11254 41259 0 1263701 940902 69178 253621 0 100040 74486 5476 20078 116727 86910 6390 23427 0 0 21560 21560 47100 47100 2805 2805 0 190891 114048 65880 10963 2806 2771 35 133781 61650 21933 50198 28780 17415 1955 9410 0 116056 86015 3006 27035 70239 55582 4804 9853 0 21776 12204 6259 3313 0 0 41303 35795 1356 4152 10520 6259 3814 447 Book production & printing 86483 86483 Membership & dues 16393 13317 3076 Bad debt 13350 13350 0 2495888 1800001 222865 473022 179224 130009 168009 171059 113790 358312 52189 32387 0 0 0 0 24394 15506 288861 142370 111293 146491 0 0 0 0 0 648899 853764 92188 95376 23000 92188 118376 X -95 -51596 403576 633754 153230 153230 556711 735388 648899 853764 176779 1898 X false true X true false X 2098668 2483622 2426486 1891552 2502749 11403077 0 0 2098668 2483622 2426486 1891552 2502749 11403077 2634866 8768211 4865 777 1733 1036 1670 10081 0 0 11413158 801904 0.76830 0.85210 X false false 47100 47100 2445983 2493083 274654 68664 false 272196 275742 266592 274654 1089184 1633776 37800 37800 37800 47100 160500 68049 68936 66648 68664 272297 408446 37800 37800 37800 47100 160500 153230 153230 153130 100 153230 150630 2500 153130 106875 43755 150630 5000 101875 106875 1.00000 false false false 31441 31441 257420 110929 146491 146491 2809615 1898 135050 136948 2672667 2672667 2630938 135050 135050 2495888 2495888 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.
