Program. The Kindness Program was designed to teach students
and others to look inward, to show respect, to treat everybody
equally and to be considerate of others. The program provides
youth and others with tools to empower them and to create a
better understanding of kindness through mindfulness and other
activities that drastically improve social and emotional behavior and create safer clubs
and communities. Arias will invite all in attendance to take the kindness pledge!
