Why Your School Needs This Kit
- Everyone is concerned about violence --
this Kit gives you the
tools to do something positive about violence.

conflicts nonviolently and make your school a safer place to be and a more effective place
to learn. The Kit will help students become more critical viewers of media violence
and less violent in their own play.
- The Pledge of Nonviolence offers students and teachers a positive
way of living and acting every day, so that their lives truly do make a difference.
- The Kit provides helpful resources for inviting parents to make
the Pledge of Nonviolence a part of their family, reinforcing what the school is teaching
their children.
- The program offers concrete action options for confronting the
violence your students and their families face in the community, in the media, sometimes
even at school or at home.
- The Kit is easy to use with practical and engaging classroom
activities for each of the Pledge components and comprehensive teachers manuals for
infusing the Pledge into the curriculum year-round.
- And the Kit is fully multicultural, offering hundreds of
suggestions for breaking down racial barriers and confronting the violence of racism and
the other "-isms" that are the roots of violence in our society.
