Child Study Association of America

Description

This folder contains materials created/collected by the Child Study Association of America, an association providing education and resources on child development and child rearing for parents and professionals. The core of the Association's work was with parents enrolled in study groups under the leadership of a professionally trained staff member. According to the Association, its attitude toward parent education was ""a common sense approach to the findings of science."" The CSAA studied psychiatry, psychology, and sociology and interpreted ""sound and useful"" ideas for parents and professionals. In addition to study groups organized at CSAA headquarters in New York City and at private homes in the area, there were a number of groups associated with settlement houses, church and community groups, and housing developments in Harlem and in New York's lower east side. The Inter-Community Child Study Committee (1925-1935) was a semi-autonomous group founded in 1929 to further CSAA's interest in providing parent education in African American communities. Included in this folder are the committee membership roster, lists of physicians and African American school teachers in Harlem, a memo regarding the organizational meeting of the Inter-Community Child Study Committee, pamphlets from the National Congress of Colored Parents and Teachers, a policy statement regarding the development of child study groups in the African American community, statistics regarding the economic status of African Americans, and YMCA materials relating to programs for African American boys and girls. Also included are statements regarding the purpose of Inter-Community Child Study Committee.
