Paul Nawlin - Founder and Director
My name is Paul Nawlin. I am founder and director of Character Education Now Inc. It is a nonprofit organization dedicated to “developing our youth for leadership tomorrow”. I have been involved in and around education for over 30 years. In the past I have been a teacher, principal and school administrator and now I find myself focusing on character education for our public and private schools.
I have been married for more than 35 years to my beautiful wife and best friend. We have three grown children and 13 grandchildren. As an educator I have recognized that our youth are sadly lacking the character, morals and values that were once a standard for success. It is my desire to make a difference in the lives of our youth through the four core programs of Character Education Now Inc. With your help we can make a difference.
Brenda Jones - Executive Secretary
My husband, Ed, and I have lived in Steinhatchee, FL for over 20 years and love this area of the Florida Nature Coast. I am originally from Louisville, KY, and always enjoy visits back to the “Bluegrass State”. I became involved with Character Education Now through the Adopt-a-Grade/Staff program and am now the Executive Secretary for CEN. I am excited to have the opportunity to help in developing good character in our school’s students.
