PROGRAM OUTCOMES Following are results from a research study we conducted from 2010-2012 about the Respect Rally program, new Respect 360 pilot at our Respect Labs in New York, and other programs to document changes in attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors among those ages 9-18 after our programs. Ajer  a  RESPECT  INSTITUTE  program…    100%  of  youth  said  my  definiUon  of  RESPECT  is  now:  I  ma^er.  You  ma^er.    90%  of  youth  said  their  definiUon  of  respect  shijed  to  include  respecUng  themselves  too  and  “to  look  again”  (the  root  meaning  of  the  word  respect).    86%  of  youth  said  they  now  had  the  tools  to  deal  with  bullying,  cliques  or  abuse  and  felt  safe  about  speaking  about  disrespect  that  affected  them—a  27%  increase  from  before  the  program.    only  33%  said  they  would  say  “yes”  when  they  wanted  to  say  “no”  or  go  past  their  personal  boundaries  to  fit  in.  Before  the  program,  more  than  64%  said  they  had  gone  past  their  boundaries  to  please  others.    19%  decrease  in  the  belief  that  their  only  opUon  is  to  retaliate  when  disrespected.    88%  of  students  agreed  that  The  Respect  Basics  had  given  them  new,  be^er  ways  to  pracUce  respect  for  themselves  and  to  help  spread  respect  to  others.  

RESPECT LABS 2012 marked the launch of two National Respect Labs where we pilot programs and training as part of an ongoing process to establish our core program, Respect 360, as evidence-based by 2015. Our Respect Labs are located within Thurgood Marshall Academy Lower School in Harlem New York (K-5) and at Young Women’s College Prep in Rochester, New York (7th grade girls).

“One way I learned to show myself respect is to Trust My Gut. The Respect Basic I will practice the most from now on is: Get Help.” Zion, 10

“Before this program, my definition of respect was being caring to others. Now respect is a way of being and practicing ‘people matter’.” Elijah, 10

“Today my definition of respect is to listen to what

someone is saying, and I matter. You matter.”

Chatel, 10

“The Respect Institute has provided a framework that empowers our students to realize their

personal power, harness their energy, and focus on what they are passionate about. Our advisory

program is constructed around The Respect Basics, and these basics frame the work of our

school and are helping our students develop the belief in self and resilience that will propel them

to, and sustain them, in college.” Jennifer Gkourlias, Ed. D. Founding Principal YWCP

2013-2015 STRATEGIC GOALS As part of our strategic plan, here are the top initiatives and focus for the next two years:
