Looking for a School Assembly Program?

Dr. Haber endorses the
 Nametags Program presented by
Chris Waddell, Paralympics skier.

The Nametags education program is a twenty minute (forty-five minutes to an hour with questions) assembly designed for students third grade and above. In this interactive program, designed in conjunction with Donna Volpitta, Ed.D, Chris uses video clips, activities and stories in order to challenge students to think about the assumptions we make about the labels that we place on ourselves and others.

Anti-Bullying Programs

For Schools

Bully-Proof Your School and Help Bully-Proof Your Students For Life!

Bullying has been shown to contribute to poor student achievement, increased school avoidance and absenteeism, and even juvenile crime. Is bullying a problem at your school?

The Respect U School Program is designed for elementary, middle and high school and is designed to help you manage bully problems for the entire school year. It’s been proven to dramatically reduce bullying and it helps create a culture for the prevention of bullying in the future. One time assemblies as a bully prevention strategy does not work. Consistency with bully prevention yields long-lasting results.

The Bully Coach, Dr. Joel Haber, offers one-day or two day on-site programs that introduce all staff to important anti-bullying concepts and strategies that work. This training is designed for principals, teachers, support staff, community partners and parents. The program is customized for your specific school and focuses on school safety and bully prevention.

Respect USM Anti-Bullying School Programs include:

  • review of your school’s unique goals and issues
  • Development of a specific anti-bullying approach for your school
  • Development or review of your bully policy
  • A long-term implementation plan
  • Concentrated staff training that includes definitions and language that your school community can use to tackle bullying
  • Bully interventions that work for targets of bullying and the perpetrators
  • Bystander interventions that students will actually do
  • Hot spot training
  • Parent presentations
  • Curriculum reviews if needed
  • Much more….

For unique situations requiring special training and programs, the Bully Coach customizes a plan for the day-long consultation determined prior to the visit.

The Bully Coach provides the help you need to tackle the tough problems in bully prevention that can overwhelm your resources. Learn where to focus your efforts and reduce bullying . I’ll show you how to maximize the time spent on bullying efforts without wasting valuable time in other places.

Program Options

There are two basic school programs offered by the Bully Coach:

  1. One-Day Staff Training Program – A day-long program focusing on administrators, teachers, and other educational support staff.
  2. Comprehensive Two-Day Staff Training Program – Two days of training with more intensive cyberbullying training designed to help administration, teachers and their students identify, manage, and help decrease bullying in the classroom and the school. Interventions build around ongoing faculty involvement with their students. Please contact us for details and pricing for this program.

Crisis Management for Unresolved Bullying Incidents

I offer crisis management services for administrators, parents, school counselors or a combination for a specific incident. These anti-bullying coaching services help you manage a bully concern by providing the right protocols and skills to manage or resolve a bully situation. Current consultations may involve conflict resolution from bullying concerns between parents/children and schools where differences exist between what constitutes effective bullying intervention. Please contact us for details and pricing for this program.

Please contact Dr. Haber if you have any questions at all about the Respect U school training programs.

Personalized Consultation Services for Parents/Families:

His parent coaching and anti-bully expertise has a long and distinguished record in overcoming difficult family dynamics or specific problem situations you may be experiencing. This may involve phone consultations or face to face meetings.
