“I’ve learned that when someone changes their behavior for the better it has a BIG impact on others and it will change you too."

“It is an easy program to implement. Kids wanted to complete more stories and spend more time talking about their heroes. It is not often that kids ask to do "work" but they wanted to finish their assignments.”
Trina Wilcox, Grade 5 Teacher, Park Avenue Community School, Nanaimo, BC 

"Kyle has become more helpful at home … He is cooperative with his friends and shows compassion when playing."
