Ri and its partners are committed through CGI to reaching vulnerable girls and their influencers with our tools to help improve their life and academic outcomes.
Youth and young adult influencers (including peers) use Respect 360 to co-actively build self-respect in individuals ages 11-24. Respect 360 is a training and toolkit containing 75+ cards and 375 activities, discussion questions or journaling assignments along with a coaching method that guide youth and young adults through how to: redefine respect, practice The Respect Basics, break cycles of disrespect, achieve positive goals and thrive. Respect 360 is part of a Clinton Global Initiative commitment to reach 10,000 vulnerable youth with this toolkit by 2015.
