Abstract | This guide describes the many ways to teach bias reduction and violence prevention in order to help schools, community and religious leaders, and parents decide which project is best for their children. Some projects concentrate on changing behaviors, while others concentrate on changing attitudes as a prelude to changing behavior. Some projects assume that the cause of prejudice is the same regardless of who is targeted. These programs focus on reduction of prejudice, bias, and violence. Other programs focus on teaching conflict resolution and mediation skills as bias reduction techniques. Most anti-bias projects also deal with violence as a way to express hatred, emphasizing either changing behaviors to result in attitude change, or changing attitudes to bring about behavior change. Training methods and targeted groups vary among projects. These should be examined by the person selecting a project, as should costs, services, and philosophies. Parents can support anti-bias training for youth by getting community support and participating in school and community programs. (SLD) |
