CINCINNATI, Ohio - The Couple to Couple League has been teaching the Sympto-Thermal Method of natural family planning for over 35 years. This monumental task has been accomplished through the work of volunteer teaching couples, who impart the technical instruction while they share their personal witnesses as husband and wife. "Our volunteer teaching couples," said Executive Director Andy Alderson, "are the unsung heroes in the CCL story."


In order to launch its new program, CCL retrained its 600-some teaching couples. They asked couples to complete the online training, which takes an average of 30 hours - not easy to carve into a busy schedule. But the teaching couples rose to the challenge and according to extensive surveying by CCL, report very positive reactions to the new teaching curriculum.


"The commitment of our volunteers during the development, the pilot program, the re-tooling and final implementation phases of this project has been impressive," said Linda Kracht, Chair of CCL's Board of Directors. "We may have the most committed volunteers of any non-profit organization in the world!"
