Culture of CARE?
What Educators Say
"I am leaving hopeful and feeling empowered to try the 'P' strategies in my classroom. This is the most appreciated I've felt to be a teacher."
TEACHER
"We were given actual techniques to take with us and implement immediately. Thank you! Thank you! I want our whole staff trained. I’m using this as a parent, teacher, and counselor!"
COUNSELOR
"I really appreciate that there will be follow up on what we learned. Too often we are led through a training, and then we are expected to master it on our own without practice and observation of experts."
SPED TEACHER
"Thank you for your understanding and empathic attitude towards our role in school buildings. You provided practical solutions to challenging situations in the classroom."
