Acknowledgments

As with previous projects, this one has been a collaborative effort involving many headquarters and field staff members. A special thanks to Chuck Needleman and Yvonne Rodgers for their help in designing and modifying this packet; their insight and training expertise made it much easier.

Many people were involved in reviewing and discussing the original materials; thanks to Kate Raftery, Barbara Gardner, Bob Taylor, Karl Pulley, Nora Pacheco, and Vinette Jones. In addition I would like to recognize the works of Ed Winslow, Kay Edgar, and Kathy Bronkow, from which I drew ideas and examples.

All of this was made possible with the help of numerous trainees and Volunteers. My appreciation goes to the staffs and Volunteers in Kenya, Costa Rica, and Guatemala.
