Even After the Election Is Over, There's Work To Do
Even after the election is over, the impact will still be felt as we seek to heal the hurt so many groups of people felt with the plethora of hateful rhetoric and increased bigoted actions. Check out
Perspectives on a Diverse America with a massive literacy-based curriculum that marries anti-bias social justice content with the rigor of the Common Core State Standards.

A year ago, we decided it was time to respond to the many requests for a detailed overview of the NIOS model. We have been gathering best practices that we have shared in our films for over a decade. We also continually get ideas from so many of you. We decided to put everything into a comprehensive program with detailed information and resources for a process to transform a school - into one that is safe, accepting and inclusive.
We are thrilled to tell you it's here:
Drawing from decades of experience working with schools across the US, the Program is a comprehensive approach to creating identity safe environments where students of all backgrounds and identities feel accepted and valued.
The NIOS Program Guide includes plans to assess and improve school climate at the middle and high school levels. It
provides a wealth of information including research, statistics, and best practices for addressing bullying, intolerance, implicit bias, stereotype threat, identity safety, and trauma-informed practice.
The tools in this guide are designed to help transform campuses into places where students of all backgrounds and identities feel valued and appreciated. You can find our more and purchase the program below.
Sincerely,
Becki
