IRS990/Desc0Training of instructors and implementation and delivery: roots of empathy (Roe) is an evidence-based classroom program that has shown significant effect in reducing levels of aggression among school children by raising social/emotional competence and increasing empathy. The program reaches elementary school children from kindergarten to grade 8.At the heart of the program is a neighborhood infant and parent who visit the classroom every three weeks over the school year. A trained roe instructor coaches students to observe the babys development and to label the babys feelings. In this experiential learning, the baby is the Teacher and a lever, which the instructor uses to help children identify and reflect on their own feelings and the feelings of others. This Emotional literacy taught in the program lays the foundation for more safe and caring classrooms, where children are the Changers. They are more competent in understanding their own feelings and the feelings of others (empathy) and are therefore less likely to physically, psychologically, and emotionally hurt each other through bullying and other cruelties.In the roe program, children learn how to challenge cruelty and injustice. Messages of social inclusion and activities that are consensus building contribute to a culture of caring that changes the tone of the classroom. The instructor also visits before and after each family visit to prepare and reinforce teachings using a specialized lesson plan for each visit. Research results from national and international evaluations of roe indicate significant reductions in aggression and increases in pro-social behavior. Seeds of empathy (Soe) is roes Younger sibling. It is a program that fosters social and emotional competencies and early literacy skills and attitudes in children three to five years of age in early childhood settings.Program statistics for 2023 - 2024:A total of 83 programs were offered in: Washington DC; Hawaii; Maryland; Virginia; Seattle; Bellingham; Washington during the year, reaching 1,751 children.
