Believing in the importance of education, she continued her education in the field of social work while raising her son. Upon completion of her undergraduate degree in family life education, Benita contemplated law school and began studying for the LSAT. During that concentration she received information from her alma mater, Spring Arbor University, about a new graduate program being offered in family studies.
Family life education is a relatively new field with a sole concentration on improving and strengthening the lives of individuals and families. Upon completion of her family studies concentration, she learned of various community organizations that focused on parent and relationship enrichment. As a result, she established an education-based consulting business (2Grow2Gether, LLC), resulting in partnerships with several community organizations. She found this work very enriching and quickly developed a passion for a particular small organization, formerly called Child and Family Resource Council, now, Family Futures, doing critical work with individuals and families. It was her combined experiences working with individuals and families through this organization that fueled her to write this book. Benita holds a master of arts degree from Spring Arbor University and is a certified family life educator through the National Council on Family Relations. Since her son successfully completed his undergraduate degree, Benita recently returned to the love of her career as a flight attendant. She serves as a mandatory reporter trainer for the state of Michigan and continues her love of education-based consulting when her schedule permits. For recreation, Benita is a short-distance runner and loves gym time. Benita and her son currently reside in Kentwood, Michigan.ver menos
