About Helping Hands
Helping Hands is a high-quality program for teachers and student support teams. It includes an easy-to-use diagnostic tool that accesses peer group relationship dynamics normally hidden from teachers. The software generates a heat map to inform teachers of the potential for bullying to occur or escalate. Teachers can use this knowledge to intervene early to prevent bullying, to develop inclusive classroom teams, and to create conditions that make it safe for bullied students to tell.
