TRUST is looking for Bay Area Teacher Testers!

~Please contact us if you may be interested in participating.~

Last year, the Columbia Foundation awarded us a grant to create a curriculum guide to support the use of TRUST in classrooms and after school programs. We are looking for Bay Area teachers and after school program leaders interested in helping us test the second draft of the guide. In return participating in the testing, we’ll give you a free copy of the TRUST DVD, which has Spanish subtitles, closed captioning, chapter breaks, and two different lengths: 78 min and 57 min.

The testing period is between early March and late April. We’ll provide the TRUST DVD, the curriculum guide, some short video modules, a sample letter home, a teacher survey, and a student survey.
