School Program Testimonials

The stuff we practiced happens to me a lot, and I usually just fight. It was good to learn something else I could do.
– Teen Boy, 3-hour Experiential Class, Santa Fe Teen Court

Before Resolve my impulse would have been to attack anybody, especially people who are close to me and cross boundaries. Physically in extreme cases, verbal in more everyday cases. My tendency now would be to breathe and be more diplomatic.
– Iza, Basics Graduate

“I need to be careful about who my real friends are and who aren’t. If people aren’t nice or respectful to me then they can’t be close friends.”
– 7th grader Healthy Boundaries Participant

“People of all cultures, races, and religions need to be defended and respected. Standing up is hard and tough but we all can do it. The skills that were taught to us are going to help us change the world.
– De Vargas Middle School Change the Course Participant

“In the past, I have stood by while people were verbally bullied, not knowing what to do or say, but now I have skills and now I will be able to help others and myself.”
– Santa Fe Girls School Change The Course Participant

“After [Change The Course], I realized how many biases there are and how everybody, including myself, is guilty of judging people unfairly. I’ve decided to make a conscious effort to be less judgmental.”
– Santa Fe Girls School Change The Course Participant
