Parenting education, combined with adult basic education and early childhood education, makes the Even Start program a unified family literacy program which helps to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and low literacy. Research studies have shown that the Even Start program has positive effects on its participants. Even though some of the effects are not explicitly tied to parenting education, they are closely related to parenting education. This study investigated the effectiveness of parenting education as perceived by its participants. The purposes of this study were to identify Even Start program participants' perceptions of parenting education, to explore issues related to parenting education, and to identify the impact of parenting education as perceived by the program participants. The interviewed parents considered parenting education an important component of the Even Start family literacy program. Findings in this study revealed how the participants used what they had learned in the parenting classes, incorporating their improved literacy skills to facilitate the growth of the whole family. According to the study participants, parenting classes provided a safe and comfortable environment for the parents to learn or validate their parenting practices, to identify themselves with each other, to build up a network of support system, and to practice their literacy skills in a context related to their everyday life. Since their participation in the parenting education, the study participants reported attainment of new insights about being a good parent, better communication with their children and other family members, improved education experience for their children, prolonged parenting values and practices, and improved family relationships. Using Bronfenbrenner's ecology model to look at the family literacy program, parenting education appeared to be the linkage between all components.

Using a qualitative approach, this study explored how participation in a family literacy program can impact important relationships beyond the targeted parent-child dyad. Interviews with 108 parents, were collected over four program years, 1996-1999, as part of the statewide evaluation of Oregon's Even Start Family Literacy programs, were analyzed using a systems theory framework. The findings provided support for the theoretical framework, where not only the target parent and child participants' relationship changed as a result of participation, but also relationship changes with non-participant children, partners, peers, and extended family were reported. These relationship changes were examined, by using the participants' words to gain greater insight into the types of changes that occurred and the process of that change. Parent's reported increases in home-based literacy activities with their children and greater knowledge of basic child development, which led to improvements in parent-child interactions. Participant's also indicated learning effective communication skills and anger management techniques, as well as discipline strategies that were less punitive. Interviews revealed that some skills learned in Even Start rippled out to their intimate partners as well. Some parents disclosed that Even Start was particularly supportive and helpful in the few instances of oppression and domestic violence. Hispanic participants noted more frequent changes in their intimate relationships, as they were more likely to be partnered. They indicated becoming less dependent on their partners, which led to positive changes in their marital relationships. Most participants initially indicated being isolated from both family and friends, however participation in Even Start led to expanded social networks. Some participants changed their peer groups as a result of participation. Hispanic participants were especially appreciative of the opportunity to socialize with other parents through participation in Even Start. The findings offer important implications for future research and practitioners. Even Start appears to be effective in fostering overall family wellbeing and expanding social networks. Additional investigation using a triangulation of methods is needed to further examine the effectiveness of this program, particularly the parenting classes.
