Topic(s)

The American Assembly on "Reweaving the Social Tapestry: Public Policies for American Families" convened on September 21-24, 2000 in Kansas City, Missouri.  Participants concluded that families can play a vital role in bringing America to greater unity. Yet even the definition of "family" can be a source of great division.  The group's recommendations encouraged business and government initiatives designed to support this core societal structure.
