OUR STORY
About Thinking Forward
Thankfully, the need to address the issue is top-of-mind for educators and parents alike.
At Thinking Forward, we have a singular goal: to decrease the incidence of bullying by developing strong character and leadership abilities in children and youth.
Our approach is a little different from what you might typically see. Rather than provide resources, how-to’s and information about bullying at school assemblies, we actually go into the classroom and provide a 4-week character education program.
To keep it engaging and meaningful for children, our program features a highly interactive, arts-based curriculum.
The end goal is to inspire our children and youth to channel their energy into creating positive change in their communities. We believe this can significantly reduce the occurrence of bullying in our schools.
