Elaine Stevens-Parke, MBA
Executive Director
"Because I, like you, care deeply about all of us, our planet, and our children's future, I founded and am building momentum for "12 Habits 4 All of Us."
​
It's time we all treated each other better more often. My wolf friend in this photo, Logan, knows better than we do, that to survive, you have to co-exist with nature, and get along together in your family and in your own pack.
