Gayle Sears, Rockford Illinois School District, teacher:
The Healing Our Nation programs have been powerful instruments for change for me, both personally and professionally. They have given me a heightened awareness and a deeper understanding of the nature and effects of prejudice and discrimination in our country, in my community, in my school district, and in my classroom. They are simple, clear, direct, and personal in their impact.
Cindy Rauch, Public Library Administrator:
I highly recommend this program to any professional who is striving to eliminate racism within their facility. Completion of the program provides a background for understanding the complexities of racism and suggests corrective measures. It is an exciting, hands-on, not-to-be-forgotten set of activities designed to change avenues of thinking. This course is a must for those leaders who understand the strength of diversity and the height to which it can take us.
Eric Untershuetz, high school student
The Level 1 program brought racism to a more tangible level of consciousness for me...made it easier to deal with and find solutions on a daily level.
Steve Schutte, Division Manager, Lucent Technologies
What I found most effective was the way in which the material was delivered, specifically building concepts upon one another to prepare participants for the next significant "teachable moment."
