Getting Along

Getting Along is an interactive multimedia program that teaches young people how to identify the causes of conflict and resolve disputes peacefully. Through a mix of expert advice, candid teenage testimonials, and inspiring music, this engaging presentation equips viewers with practical skills to navigate modern challenges.

“Student excitement and participation in the program was overwhelming.  The skills in conflict resolution they acquired along with the classroom discussion that followed the program was very impressive.”

Counselor,  Maple Point Middle School

 “Your music, video, and narrative communicated exceptionally well to our students that non-violence was the way to go to resolve conflict. The positive comments from both staff and students about the successful program reaffirm that your  message was well received.”

Principal,  Central Regional High School

 
The Getting Along program teaches several practical conflict resolution skills designed to help young people manage disputes effectively. Key examples include: 
 
  • Active Listening: Learning to hear and understand the other person’s perspective without interruption or judgment.
  • Managing Emotions: Techniques for “cooling off” and staying calm during a conflict, such as deep breathing or taking a timeout.
  • Perspective-Taking: Understanding that different viewpoints are natural and learning to see a situation through someone else’s eyes.
  • Effective Communication: Using assertive and respectful “I statements” to express feelings (e.g., “I feel upset when…”) rather than blaming others.
  • Collaborative Problem-Solving: Brainstorming multiple ideas to find a “win-win” solution that makes everyone happy.
  • Seeking Help: Recognizing when a conflict is too complex to handle alone and knowing to turn to a trusted adult for guidance.
  • Practical Negotiation: Using simple strategies like taking turns, sharing, or even choosing a fair way to decide, such as flipping a coin.
