Public School Character Program

Picture
Since 2014 we have had the privilege of partnering with principals and the public school system in the Dominican Republic to address the issue of declining character and moral behavior of teens in the community. 

We started in one classroom at one school, and today we are in 121 classrooms in 13 public schools. The impact of the program has created such a momentum that we have a waiting list of public schools requesting the program.
"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)
