KiND LiPS in the Classroom
Our Why:
This program has been thoughtfully designed to cultivate a kinder and more connected environment in both the classroom and the community. Bullying is negatively impacting our cities, schools, and even our homes. An epidemic of loneliness, isolation and feeling invisible, have all been recognized as a significant public health crisis. We believe this program is a part of the solution. It anchors a practical self-care item that is affordable and long-lasting to the behavior of being kind to yourself and those around you. Simultaneously, it helps rebuild social connections, improve mental health, and combat loneliness. By taking small and simple steps, this program offers not only hope but also solutions for a better today and tomorrow.
