The Respect for All Project

GroundSpark's Respect For All Project facilitates the development of inclusive, bias-free schools and communities by providing media resources, support and training to youth, educators and service providers.

About The Respect for All Project

The Respect for All Project (RFAP) is has been GroundSpark’s primary program since 1992.

Our central goals are:

  • To challenge stereotypes and to help children, youth and adults make the linkages between a variety of prejudice and bias issues;
  • To promote respect and equity at the earliest age possible and on an ongoing basis, before negative attitudes and prejudices become entrenched and harmful;
  • To reduce the number of acts of bullying and violence among youth; and
  • To help create inclusive, welcoming school and community environments where young people and families of all backgrounds and experiences can thrive.
  • Since the Project began, more than a million students have seen our films and participated in life-changing discussions about diversity, violence, bias, and acting for change. In addition, the  RFAP has trained tens of thousands of educators, social workers, school counselors, youth service providers, parents and community members in all parts of the United States.
