Students in grades K-12 are motivated through experiential active learning exercises emphasizing communication, positive socialization and other skills necessary to succeed in school and in life. Our original curriculum is facilitated by our highly trained staff that adheres to lessons, but also take advantage of "teachable moments," adapting to the crucial needs and concerns of students in the moment that they manifest themselves. In addition, all violence prevention lessons include simultaneous training of classroom teachers, improving buy-in among all participants and creating consistency in the conflict resolution process.

Schools participating in this program receive:
  • Introductory principal meetings
  • Teacher/Trainer planning sessions
  • In-class lessons for students and their teachers
  • The Leadership Program Violence Prevention curriculum
  • Staff development
