This report provides an overview of the second year of the Family Education and Training Program, a project constructed to: (1) investigate the impact of a comprehensive child care training program on the employability of low-income mothers; and (2) assess the effect of training and support in parenting and job readiness on parenting skills and children's cognitive and social competence. During the first year of the project, a comprehensive literature review was conducted. During the second year, the idea behind the project was converted into a field program and research design. Based on findings from the literature review, an intervention was designed, an implementation plan was developed, and a site was selected. Section I of the report introduces the project, following which section II presents key findings from the Year I literature review. In sections III, IV, and V, the report reviews existing child care training, parenting, and job readiness curricula, with the goal of laying the foundation of the curriculum to be used in the project. Section VI surveys the experiences of current and recently operating child care training programs, culling field-based lessons on program structure, population, staffing, support services, and outcomes. Section VII recounts advancements made in locating an appropriate home for the program and developing a research design for evaluating the program. Finally, section VIII explicitly describes the structure and content of the program's proposed intervention, detailing its framework, schedule, and staffing patterns. Four appendices present reference lists of child care training curricula and projects, parenting curricula, and job readiness curricula. (Contains 46 references.) (Author/AC)
