The Respect Institute
Featured, The Respect Institute
The Respect Institute
What if every person knew he or she was valuable and worthy of respect? What if they treated others how they wanted to be treated? When people have respect on the inside, they can thrive vs. getting trapped in cycles of disrespect including violence, abuse, inequality, poverty, poor health, unhealthy relationships, inadequate education and low self-esteem.
This is our vision: to create a ripple effect of respect throughout the world.
Respect Rx's programs, workshops and speaking engagements are now delivered by the newly formed organization: The Respect Institute. Programs and tools are available for all youth, families, educators/advocates and communities. Visit the website to learn more! RespectRx.com is now the home of my blog -- get our feed or follow me...
