Respondents were asked whether they thought their attendance at CASP had affected their family members' attitudes towards learning (Table 12). The majority of men (57%) thought there was little or no effect; the majority of women (64%) thought there was some, or a great effect on family attitudes. The female response may reflect an embeddedness in family life which is not as typical for the males in the study.

Respondents wrote in answer to the question "Please tell me how you were able to help your family with their continued learning." These answers were summarized as follows:

The respondents ( 21%) helped children or family members to stay in school or stated that they helped the family generally (20%). Others (14%) helped their families do homework, specifically math (11%), reading ( 9%) and a few ( 3%) helped with spelling.

Eight percent of respondents were uncertain whether they had helped other family members and 14% reported that they had not helped.
