Product Description:
This classic intervention program is designed to teach adolescents to understand and replace aggression and antisocial behavior with positive alternatives. The program's three-part approach includes training in Prosocial Skills, Anger Control, and Moral Reasoning. Aggression Replacement Training (ART) has been used successfully throughout the U.S. and Canada. It is a user friendly and teacher oriented program. The manual includes summaries of ART's outcome evaluations and discusses a wide range of applications in schools and other settings. Appendices contain over 100 pages of guidelines, checklists, and more.
