What is included in the cost of a Get Real day?
The fee for Get Real includes meeting with school administrators, parents and teen leaders prior to the day to ensure their full participation and follow-up discussions with school officials.

Two facilitators deliver the one-day program in a fun and experiential manner. All participants are given a journal at the end of the day in which others are encouraged to write good things about the individual to make youth and adults feel good about themselves in times of sadness or loneliness.

How do you quantify or monitor the results?
A survey is given to the students prior to the participation in a Get Real day and the same survey is given approximately one-month after the Get Real day.
