About |
Rachel’s Challenge exists to inspire, equip and empower every person to create a permanent positive culture change in their school, business or community by starting their own chain reaction of kindness and compassion. We have a comprehensive set of age-appropriate programs for K-12, college and business. The objectives of these programs are all the same: to continue Rachel’s legacy of kindness and compassion and;
• Help schools and businesses to become safer, more connected places to live and learn.
• Stimulate real culture change by actively involving the entire community in the process.
• Change lives by providing culturally relevant social/emotional training.
• Increase achievement and ensure results by engaging the participants’ heart, head and hands in a continuing improvement process.
Rachel’s Challenge provides a sustainable evidence-based, evidence-driven improvement process. Our partner schools achieve statistically significant gains in community engagement, faculty/student relationships, leadership potential, and school climate; along with reductions in bullying, alcohol, tobacco and other drug use. Every year:
• Over 2 million people are involved in Rachel’s Challenge programs.
• More than 2,000 schools and businesses are reached.
• Over 150 suicides are averted.
• Bullying and violence decrease.
• Community service and acts of kindness increase.
