What people are saying about the Steps to Respect program
An elementary school principal and a counselor
describe the benefits of a schoolwide program.
"One of the unique findings from our study was to see
significant effects reported by teachers, students, and
all school staff on the key areas that were a focus
of the [Steps to Respect] program."
Dr. Eric Brown
University of Washington
Social Development Research Group
"‘Steps to Respect’ is one of the few programs that
addresses the critical role of the bystander and
emphasizes the responsibility of all members of the
school community to decrease bullying."
Barbara Coloroso, Author
The Bully, the Bullied, and the Bystander
The research-based Steps to Respect
elementary school program includes:
