We R 3C has been called a “revolutionary” approach to character education and community building. The program works from the premise that developing healthy personal relationships, as a foundation for behavioral interaction, is an essential component to achieving the goal of people exhibiting intrinsically motivated, sincere and caring behaviors.
1. Through process-based instruction, the program
teaches participants methods and skills that will allow them to establish, develop and maintain cooperative and productive personal relationships. takes social interaction to the foundational level by establishing that the word “respect” means to recognize the value of someone or something. It is through the recognition of the value of an individual that the behaviors associated with respect, such as kindness, courtesy, helpfulness and compassion, will automatically and sincerely be demonstrated.
2. In the development of a caring individual We R 3C materials provide participants with the ability and experiences to see the value in others. In research conducted over the past five years, its methodology has been documented as having a success rate of over 94% for empowering participants with the abilities to create and grow new and existing personal relationships.
3. We R 3C addresses the topic of bullying behaviors in a very unique, powerful and successful way. The program sequentially builds and enables participants who may have been, or will be bullied, to utilize methods that allow victims of bullying behavior to understand the need to think before they react to someone victimizing them by demonstrating hurtful behaviors. The program methods offer participants ways to develop understanding, compassion and empathy towards those that exhibit malicious behaviors towards them. We R 3C methodology guides participants to use these three qualities to arrive at and offer forgiveness, or in other words, let go of their need for revenge, to the offender. Participants understand that forgiving the offender does not have to be physically or verbally demonstrated, but can simply be a choice within their mind and heart. That forgiveness then becomes the cornerstone for proactive attempts at healing the relationship with the offender and moving it toward one of congeniality, respectfulness and productivity. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. ~ Mahatma Ghandi
