Washington, CT... Representatives of Devereux Glenholme will visit The Danbury Rotary Club on January 31. Richard Sears, Director of Development, and Mary Guilfoile, Director of Training, will present a program on Devereux Glenholme's approach to character education for schools, homes, businesses and communities.

Devereux Glenholme is part of the Devereux Foundation, a national foundation with centers in 12 states and the District of Columbia. The Washington, CT campus provides a residential academic program for children, ages 5 to 16, with emotional, behavioral and learning difficulties.

Ethics educators from the school have provided character education training for tens of thousands of parents, teachers, business managers and employees over the past five years.
