School Programs

Available for Grades PK-12 across the state of Oklahoma
Nearly one-in-four children in the United States experience substance use disorders in their family. The combination of genetics and the traumatic experience of growing up with the disease of addiction in the home makes means these kids are eight- times more likely to develop an addiction themselves.

"During the winter of 2023, the Peaceful Family team led grades 2-5 in one-hour sessions once a week for six weeks. Before partnering with Wellston Elementary, the team willingly answered questions and shared resources, including the curriculum. The Peaceful Family team engaged students in critical thinking and problem-solving throughout each lesson. Students learned skills for dealing with daily obstacles and conflicts. They used high-quality strategies for managing and instructing students. The lessons were well-planned, and the materials were provided for each student. The team exemplified a model for teaching and learning so much that I encouraged teachers to visit the classroom and learn additional teaching strategies. I would recommend Peaceful Family to educational institutions to support whole-student development."
