2012 Photo Event

Our most popular AP Month activity is back!  Check out the photo gallery on API’s Facebook page and “Like” your favorites starting October 1!

Celebrating our theme of support this year, we’re asking to see your photos of you with your support groups!  The photo should reflect you with the group of people who regularly provide you support in ways that in turn, support  your parenting.  The group need not be focused on parent support, but should be a group that brings you relaxation, relationship, rejuvenation and renewal.

Photos that best match our guidelines will be featured on the API FaceBook site during October.  Everyone will have a chance to vote for their favorites and API may feature up to 5 photos account those photos in API publications!
