Portrait of James P. Comer.
Goldberg, Mark F.
Educational Leadership, v48 n1 p40-42 Sep 1990
James P. Comer, a distinguished Black child psychiatrist born of sharecropper parents, credits his family's values and continued support for his success in college. In 1968, Comer and his colleagues developed a school-based management team to help poor families and schools develop trust and mutual respect. The program is widely used in New Haven schools and elsewhere. (MLH)
