Our curricular materials avoid oversimplified generalizations about social classes and groups. Family units other than the nuclear family model are represented, e.g., single parents, adopted children, and same-sex parents. We strive to make our materials as accessible as possible to a wide audience, including providing free supports and resources.

SAS also works with districts to offer caregiver trainings spanning a variety of topics.
