Following the 2006 session, a teacher reported an observation of a student utilizing one of the anger management tools learned through participation in the program. This specific student’s behavior reflects the value of creating a safe environment in which to learn and practice emotional modulation.

Students participating in the program have found it to be both fun and a learning experience.
