The Respect For All Project

The Respect For All Project (RFAP) seeks to create safe, hate-free schools and communities. A program of GroundSpark, RFAP provides youth and the adults who guide their development the tools they need to engage in age-appropriate discussions about human difference, preventing prejudice and building caring communities.

Parents and guardians are often concerned about their children's safety and well-being amidst increasing reports of school bullying and harassment. They can feel alone and powerless about how to respond.

The Respect For All Project offers two-and-a-half hour workshop that bring together parents and school representatives to address bullying from a community perspective using the film Let's Get Real. An experienced trainer presents parents and guardians with research and information about the nature and extent of bullying in our schools, examining the underlying connection between bullying and prejudice, especially prejudice based on race, ethnicity, gender, religion, class and sexual orientation.

Participants then watch Let's Get Real and leave with increased understanding of the role they can play in countering school bullying. They can also acquire greater resources and skills to work with schools to help their children navigate this challenging problem.

For more information, email training@respectforall.org or call 1-800-405-3322. Public schools may be eligible for subsidized workshop fees.
