Yes 100%. We recommend a powerful and manageable coaching package of three sessions to help your staff prepare, launch, and progress with as much support as possible.
We customize every package for our partners based upon the needs of each organization. We rarely sell the kid-grit Curriculum without training and encourage coaching along the way. We offer massive discounts for curriculum guides 2-100 and will combine initial training and ongoing support as a part of a uniquely designed experience for your team. Generally, the first guide costs $499.00 with additional guides dropping as low as $100 based on volume of purchase.
We believe that staff at all levels should attend. This means we understand the value of having every level of your organization involved in the commitment to social-emotional learning. SEL is just as important to staff, if not more, than it is to the youth we serve. Our trainings will impact front line staff, support staff, administrators, Directors, and Executives and will permeate through every level of your organization. With this approach and commitment, we have learned that we collectively have the power to eliminate the disconnect and lack of awareness that sometimes occurs between students and staff.
Introducing kid-grit the BOOKTM. kid-grit the BOOK is a collection of 25 authentic, soul-searching stories from students across the nation. Inspiring stories from the voices of our youth ages 17- 27.

You will find topics dealing with everything from depression, bullying, substance abuse in the home, physical violence, digital addiction, anxiety disorder, isolation, abuse of social media, transgender challenges, poverty, and more listed below.

You will also see how each author handles her/his challenges and struggles. It is part of our mission to provide real-life testimonials from the very people who have overcome their challenges. kid-grit: THE BOOK can be used to engage middle and high school youth in important and timely conversations focused on their own social-emotional growth, feelings and how to navigate challenges successfully.
