CCA envisions a world where all people are accepted for who they are, not how they look. To support this vision, we are encouraging educators and parents to incorporate CCA’s #ChooseKind Initiative during the child/student’s developing year.
Our #ChooseKind Initiative aims to develop kindness education and prevent bullying, intolerance, and isolation that so many children face at school each day. With escalating problems of bullying, violence, isolation, loneliness, and intolerance in schools, this message has never been more relevant.
