Crisis Management Institute’s Prevention Program
5 Radical Minutes delivers increased connection in a simple yet insightful manner.
Because students and staff have a range of uncertainties and anxieties (especially now during Covid), our mission this school year is to support schools in gaining student, staff, and family trust as we return to learning.
Now more than ever, students and staff need the opportunity to connect with others in new ways and develop mutual support and caring. 5 Radical Minute’s daily practice teaches new rules of engagement: to listen more openly, to reflect more quietly, and to respond more thoughtfully.
Given the constraints, uncertainty, and differences from one locale to another, we have created much more adaptability in the delivery of program content. Whether your school is on-site, distance learning, or a combination of the two, program use is easy, seamless, and effective.
