The Missing Protector Strategy (MPS) is a strategy, developed by Dan Korem, that has been proven to dramatically reduce risky behaviors of at‑risk youth. The MPS is a strategy, not a program, because it can be launched as a stand‑alone initiative or integrated into an existing program at a school district and community. Long‑term data from districts and communities that have used the MPS for two or more years has yielded virtually no risky behavior for at‑risk youth who receive a Protector, regardless of the type of community: from the inner‑city, to suburbs, to big‑city communities, to small rural towns.
Participants in this Training of Trainers will receive time‑proven mechanics of how to launch the strategy and meet the unique needs of their schools and communities. They will also learn how the MPS is facilitated in many different kinds of communities and how to train the necessary volunteers for the strategy. Participants will also receive the rights to provide MPS training, along with the MPS Training Manuals, Training Videos, and PowerPoint Presentations.
