Lemond Harris

Train Up A Child began conducting free parenting seminars and classes throughout the Detroit low-income community. Ruth Lawton, Founder and Executive Director, has been in the early childhood education business since 1993 and services a clientele of 95% welfare recipients. She understands first hand the needs in the community. She has positioned herself and the organization to be better equipped to offer solutions to address those needs. She has a Masters degree in Education and is currently working on a Doctorate Degree in Sociology at Wayne State University. In keeping with our commitment, we believe that we can best serve our society by investing in the family structure to prepare the next generation for their role as leaders in the community. Developing and maintaining strong neighborhoods by strengthening children and their families is our top priority. We accomplish our goals by conducting a tutoring program for K-12 students known as the “The Homework Mastery Center.” We also produce “Its All About the Children,” a television show on local public access that addresses and offers strategies to find solutions to parenting problems.
