Our one-week program for students from third grade through high school, as well as parents and other community members, provides resources on making conversations about disabilities and differences comfortable. Students will discuss visible and invisible disabilities while engaging in lessons on kindness. Each day focuses on a specific theme regarding our core values: Storytelling Permission, Authenticity, Curiosity, and Education (S.P.A.C.E.). The program includes in-person classes for students, an education night for parents, and resources on continuing the conversation at home and school.
Each day of the program is organized through the lenses of sharing, interacting, and reflecting. Lessons may last between 20-45 minutes.
Our curriculum has been thoughtfully aligned with the CASEL Social Emotional Learning Framework, focusing on the 5 skill areas of self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision-making, relationship skills, and social awareness.
