Educate:
Meet MASK's "i.m. Power"
|
| | Arizona State University Students/MASK "i.m. Power" Mentors |
MASK is excited to launch a new community education partnership with Arizona State University to pilot its "i.m. Power" peer-to-peer mentor program in local elementary schools. Eleven dedicated ASU students have committed to making a difference in the lives of children and were recently trained to present MASK's E3 Actions & Accountability program to students this fall.
The Actions & Accountability program examines bullying and helps children manage solutions. The "i.m. Power" mentors will teach students how their actions and reactions can affect others, and the mentors will encourage the children to remember that they have the power to affect others in a positive manner. MASK mentors will return to the local schools each month to conduct classroom-based activities which reinforce the Actions & Accountability message. The "i.m. Power" Mentor program will continue throughout the school year with two more E3 Programs and corresponding follow-up reinforcement activities.
MASK's school-based program aims to build social and emotional skills in children, while helping the school create a positive climate and atmosphere in a manner that also helps teachers and
school administrators meet educational standards. A school-wide approach on positive social-emotional skills creates an education environment that prepares children to be "ready to learn".
For scheduling and fees please call 480-502-5337 or email programs@maskmatters.org.
Call now to schedule for the 2015/2016 school year.
