Dear Utterly Global,

The Stand Up Speak Out sessions were wonderful, thank you for providing such a useful program. The kids have really seemed to incorporate the lessons they learned from your presentations into their everyday interactions with each other..

Their enthusiasm didn't stop there, though. Instead of an Observe-Think-Behave poster, the group decided to write and film a skit in order to increase awareness about bullying which they wrote, acted out, and filmed themselves.

Thanks again for this wonderful program,

Joelle Nivens
Senior Group Leader, Older Youth Site Coordinator
Bronx River Community Center

"The message in Utterly Global's professional development training and programs is one of the most contemporary messages of this decade. We are grateful that this message is conveyed in the fashion that it is, compassionately, factually and intelligently."

Thank you on behalf of the DYCD/NYCHA Cornerstone Initiative.

"This program utilizes the best practices available in the field. Preventing bullying is one of the most important school missions because it touches on so many areas of positive mental health.
It is only when children feel safe that they are free to learn and take advantage of all the things that school offers. I heartily endorse this program. Programs like this are the first step to eliminating violence in our schools.”

"Our elementary school counselors were in-serviced on the Utterly Global anti-bullying program.Along with the in-service, each elementary counselor was also provided with an anti-bullying program. I highly recommend this training be made available to high school counselors, parents and administrators”.
