ABSTRACT
The diverse challenges associated with raising grandchildren are widely recognized as daunting. Custodial grandparents, however, frequently demonstrate commitment, creativity, and tenacity in their attitudes and their approaches to activities associated with their caregiving role. This chapter will highlight grandparents' readiness to learn and will illustrate effective service delivery practices for this population. Inherent strengths and a process for enhancing resiliency in grandparent caregivers will also be addressed.
