DVD: Boys In Crisis: Why It Matters and What You Can Do About It

PERFECT FOR PARENTS AND EDUCATORS, $99 for DVD OR $195 for a school to copy for parents in one building.

It's time to pay attention to the emotional and social life of boys!

The Boys in Crisis DVD contains four modules that address the unique challenges boys face-and provide practical solutions for changing the lives of boys for the better. Packed with data, case studies, resources, and insights, this unique tool is designed for the people who have the best chance of bringing about positive change:
  • Module 1: Boys Are Wired Differently - 24 minutes
  • Module 2: The Boy Code - 19 minutes
  • Module 3: Voices - 21 minutes
  • Module 4: The Media - 19 minutes
Boys are far more likely to be:
- Referred to the school office for discipline
- Behind in reading and writing skills
- Suspended from school
- Placed in special education
- Held back from the next grade level
- Perpetrators of crimes
For society at large, this disparity "results in boys being unfulfilled as men who are disconnected emotionally and responsibly from their families, communities, and workplaces," according to Boys in Crisis author Dr. Paul Slocumb.

Based on the book, Hear Our Cry: Boys in Crisis.

DVD: Preventing School Violence by Creating Emotional Safety
  $810.00

($795 plus $15 shipping - includes 5 videos and manual)

In the wake of Columbine, Colorado, Dr. Ruby K. Payne puts her considerable skill and experience with children to work in this five-part video series aimed at offering practical suggestions to preventing violence in our schools. The videos/DVDs come with a training manual and facilitator’s guide.

Working from the belief that having more school metal detectors, security cameras and armed guards is not the way to prevent violence, Ruby developed a concept to create emotional safety at school. She believes students don't engage in violent activity, don't bring weapons to school, don't cause disruptions, when they feel that adults care about them and what happens to them. This does not mean students expect teachers to become their friends, but actions by adults that signal care and concern can greatly reduce students' inclination toward violent behavior.

Preventing Violence by Creating Emotional Safety is a useful tool for personnel in any school district concerned about the well-being and safety of students. The videos may be purchased by any school or district or they can be used as a reinforcement tool by individuals who attend the seminar entitled: Preventing School Violence by Creating Emotional Safety.
