Our program fosters inclusion by providing empathy-building activities designed to teach elementary school-aged children how to be respectful and inclusive of all children, especially those with medical conditions, English-language learners, developmental challenges, or learning differences. This is a comprehensive program with ideas for pre-teaching in the days leading up to the event as well as having school counselors debrief with the students after the event to ensure the messages were correctly received.
