The Federal Partners in Bullying Prevention are sponsoring a contest to encourage youth to submit original public service announcements (PSA) that showcase ways in which these youths are taking action against bullying and promoting a culture of kindness and respect within their communities.

The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) sponsors regional advanced training for G.R.E.A.T. instructors who have taught G.R.E.A.T. for at least one year.

GREATINFO is an online discussion group available for professionals affiliated with the G.R.E.A.T. Program where members can exchange information and hold discussions about topics related to the G.R.E.A.T. Program.

Welcome to the G.R.E.A.T. Web Site

Gang Resistance Education And Training (G.R.E.A.T.) is an evidence-based and effective gang and violence prevention program built around school-based, law enforcement officer-instructed classroom curricula. The Program is intended as an immunization against delinquency, youth violence, and gang membership for children in the years immediately before the prime ages for introduction into gangs and delinquent behavior.

G.R.E.A.T. Introduction

G.R.E.A.T. has developed partnerships with nationally recognized organizations, such as the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Families and Schools Together (FAST), and the National Association of Police Athletic/Activities Leagues, Inc. (PAL). These partnerships encourage positive relationships among the community, parents, schools, and the law enforcement community.

The G.R.E.A.T. Program offers a continuum of components for students and their families that focus on providing life skills to students to help them avoid using delinquent behavior and violence to solve problems. These components include a 13-lesson middle school curriculum, a 6-lesson elementary school curriculum, a summer program, and families training.

The Regional Training Centers provide training to sworn/certified criminal justice professionals to teach the G.R.E.A.T. curricula to elementary and middle school students and to families throughout North America, including the United States, Canada, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama.
