Tired of using custom data fields on a child to collect information about their parents and emergency contacts? Would you like the information collected during the registration to create (or update) the various contact records needed in the back-office? Then this blog post is for you.

By universalhandle Filed under CommunityI discovered CiviCRM as I was transitioning from accidental techie to intentional techie.
