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. 281841 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. 278466 C@R established the Center to End the Trafficking and Exploitation of Children (CETEC) in 2007 through its Public Policy & Law Center to launch a broad educational and outreach campaign to combat human trafficking. Because C@R has been a leader in making significant progress in the fight against human trafficking in Texas, it plans to replicate its success on a national level. To attain this goal, C@R will grow CETEC into a national center with a focus on enacting and changing state and local legislation through coordinating a national conference, establishing a human trafficking summer institute for law students, and increasing its partnerships. 125650 1513863 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 false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 17 0 true 34 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 42 41 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 Bob Zincke 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Frazier Wilson 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Buddy Steves 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Jeff Starke 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Aashish Shah 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lynn Sessions 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Adolfo Santos 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Alyssa Rodriguez 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Megan Sutton-Reed 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Joe Perillo 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jim Perdue 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Larry Payne 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Anne Nemer 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bryan Milton 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mike Maher 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kurt Lyn 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Loving 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Kellner 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Shelda Keith 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Pam Humphrey 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rebecca Hove 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 James Holtz 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Regay M Hildreth 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Lauren Harrison 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Christopher Greeley MD 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Graff 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Angelo Giardino 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David DeVane 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 David Cordua 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Craig Cordola 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Andy Buttacavoli 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Christopher Borreca 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dr Claire Bocchini 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bob Baker 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Philamena Baird 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jason Bailey 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mark Troth 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Susan Lindberg 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 David Roylance 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kyle Jennings 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robert Westendarp 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robert Sanborn Ed D 40.00 0.00 X X 175000 0 6000 175000 6000 1 false true false 0 681398 1492648 89750 2174046 Program initiative fees 900099 38740 38740 Education research fees 900099 25470 25470 64210 3028 3028 0 0 0 0 208345 681398 401054 -192709 -192709 0 0 0 2048575 64210 -189681 0 0 0 0 181000 154108 9445 17447 0 850865 724490 44618 81757 0 75859 65535 2147 8177 84901 72285 4457 8159 0 0 36200 36200 0 10000 10000 0 146561 146561 22090 22090 88747 59160 19766 9821 4239 3662 120 457 0 105529 91167 2986 11376 52748 45568 1493 5687 0 42017 39826 456 1735 0 0 7126 6156 202 768 7173 7173 Training & education 8269 7144 234 891 Dues & membership 16444 14206 465 1773 Other event expenses 21320 21320 Book production & printing 58523 58523 15282 3382 4434 7466 1834893 1513863 134196 186834 42778 508375 608680 319528 112681 201800 13333 8000 0 0 0 0 37956 22197 101815 47248 18455 54567 11375 12664 0 0 0 0 845258 1127131 38212 114928 8525 46737 114928 X 234730 152518 558791 854685 5000 5000 798521 1012203 845258 1127131 213682 X false true X true false X 918015 996876 1113214 1576067 2174046 6778218 0 0 918015 996876 1113214 1576067 2174046 6778218 366552 6411666 1934 4243 4054 1628 3028 14887 0 0 6793105 251515 0.94380 0.93610 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false 3288 29000 32288 1792605 1824893 241245 60311 false 162392 176718 200203 241245 780558 1170837 46480 48580 47937 32288 175285 40598 44180 50051 60311 195140 292710 1780 2780 4287 3288 12135 5000 1289 1289 5000 5000 83 83 5000 5000 680 680 5000 5000 1297 1297 5000 136 136 5000 5000 1.00000 false false false 31441 31441 70374 47248 23126 54567 2048575 2048575 2048575 1834893 1834893 1834893 Part V, Line 4 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund.

C@Rs research shows that children who eat breakfast regularly are significantly less likely to be overweight, since breakfast can help jumpstart 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.
