CREW4KIDS has a proven solution modeled on a program from the State of Ohio that has shown a 60% reduction in school violence and an 80% reduction in teacher discipline referrals to the principal. It is time for California schools to achieve the same success!

CREW4KIDS addresses violence and conflict at their root causes. We make violence prevention, conflict resolution education and peaceful co-existence a core part of the curriculum in every grade level and integrates it into other core curriculums.

Now imagine a place where children get along, feel safe and are free to develop to their optimum ability.
	It is an affordable, accessible and effective program designed as a core component of the educational process in elementary, middle and high school.
	It empowers children to replace violent behaviors with skills to constructively deal with conflicts; and
	It teaches children to respect differences and to peacefully co-exist in every aspect of their lives.
	It is customized to suit the needs of the school and community.
	It is a natural adjunct to the daily learning process. Teachers are given training and sample lesson plans to infuse violence prevention, conflict resolution education and peaceful co-existence skills within their daily course instruction.
	It teaches parents, educators and staff cooperative problem solving, positive communication skills and offer workshops to enhance their ability to role model positive behavior skills to youth in the home and in school.
	It is designed to become sustainable by the school without little or no involvement from CREW4KIDS within five years of its establishment in the school.
