MVP Testimonials
Teachers who participated in a pilot MVP training in Missoula provided this feedback:
- "This workshop is very valuable to a teacher. We hear and see things everyday. The more tools we have for working with young people in these situations the better."
- "Thanks for two great days! This is one of the best and most useful workshops I've attended in 25 years of teaching."
- "Excellent curriculum-as is!! Can also be expanded to include violence against anyone (i.e. disabled, ethnic groups...) or adapted to student needs or abilities."
Teens in Missoula are concerned and want to know more about dating violence and abusive
relationships. Students from Hellgate High School who participated in an MVP training talked
about the benefits:
- "Learning the actual definitions of rape and abuse. I think many people aren't aware when they may be abusing someone or even raping."
- "Try to reach more people if possible. I feel there are so many people outside of these classes who need the knowledge we received."
- "I thought everything was helpful because it made me think about what was right and wrong in real life situations."
- "It's good to know what really happens instead or hiding it or ignoring it."
- "Learning all the statistics. It really hit me! I never thought it was a big deal."
- "When we discussed how often these things occur. It's bad how often they occur but reassuring to know you're not alone."
- "They are eye-openers and bring us information that we may not have heard anywhere else."
