This material is unofficially titled "BIG RED NOTEBOOK" because it was found inside a big red looseleaf notebinder after Alexander Christakis and David moved from the GMU office around the spring of 1989. Aleco, David and probably Ben Broome undoubtedly have copies of all this material, which was an ongoing effort to produce a useful training program for facilitators. There is no single author, since all members of the Center contributed to it. It was chiefly under the supervision of Aleco, but others in the Center must have had a great deal to do with it also, I believe.

 I have not located all these items, and I believe that when they arrived at GMU Libraries in the shipment of October 2000 they were in a bundle of manuscripts, having been emptied from the big red notebook to save space, therefore probably were separated and renamed. See also Facilitator Training another folder in the Collection which might hold some of these papers. We will never know until someone goes to Fenwick Library and hunts for them, and I will never do that, I guess. (r.w. 9/24/2017)
