This blog is sponsored by a committee of American Handwriting Analysis Foundation, of which I am currently the president. AHAF is a non-profit educational organization with chapters in several states and members in eleven countries. We are concerned about the trend away from teaching children to write. This blog encourages educators to return to the practice of cursive writing, and our posts will explain why this is so important.
