HABITUDES
​Character + Leadership Program

Picture
Since 2014, we have had the privilege of partnering with public high schools in the Dominican Republic to address the issue of declining character and moral behavior of teens in the community through our Habitudes character and leadership program. Today, we are in over 200 classrooms in 18 public high schools, impacting over 5,000 students, weekly. 
"The Global Effect Character Program has completely changed my life! Before the program, I was prideful, selfish, and had negative attitudes that I never realized before participating in these classes. Thanks to this program I have been changing."
-Pamela (program participant)
