The Asian Newcomer Parent Program (ANPP), an experimental project initiated by the Education Center for Chinese (ECC) in 1971, was intended to provide newly immigrated parents some of the same opportunities as their children to learn English, to understand American mores and lifestyles, and to transcend some of the cultural and communication barriers within the family unit. Two major project goals of the project were to develop curriculum and instructional materials and to establish a model English language and community orientation program. The first-year report outlines five specific program goals and corresponding objectives: (1) to provide comprehensive counseling services; (2) to provide immediately useful English to newly immigrated families; (3) to institute unique teaching methods for mini-units; (4) to disseminate program information and materials; and (5) to provide evaluation of the program. Also included are: program data, an English as a second language (ESL) placement test, a shopping questionnaire, Chinese language testing materials, program evaluation documents, sample forms, and mini-course descriptions.
