Learn How to Run Arts-Kids at Your Organization
Schools, civic centers, community groups, nonprofits and others want to adopt the Arts-Kids & Arts-Teens Model in their communities.
Arts-Kids has developed facilitated training sessions and self-study guides to teach your organization to implement the program:
- How to create a “safe environment” so that students develop trust, empathy and respect for one another, and a format for sharing information that invites intimacy and fairness.
- How to handle a child or teen who is “acting out” or behaving outside of group norms.
- How to use the expressive arts as a means of allowing children to express and work out feelings, take risks and develop more resilient youth.
- How groups of children and teens go through the stages of group development from conflict to intimacy and closeness.
- How to organize the administrative nuts and bolts of running the program
