The Connection Practice for Educators, School Counselors and Parents
Dr. Davi Pakter explains how his family dynamic was transformed by the Connection Practice.

Educators and School Counselors
Threat Assessment in Schools, a guide jointly published by the US Secret Service and the Department of Education, underscores the pivotal role of connection as the ‘critical emotional glue’ and a cornerstone of fostering a culture of safety and respect in schools.
The Connection Practice is easy to learn and integrate into school curricula and counseling sessions. Studies highlight its positive impact on academic performance and emotional safety in the classroom.
I thought this school year was going to be the worst of my teaching career because I was getting a cohort of kids with reputations for being difficult and even violent. Because of the Connection Practice, it turned out to be the best year ever. I’m so proud that, at the end of this rough year of converting to distance learning, my class was the only one in the school that had 100% attendance. We stayed connected!
-Carole Goyen, 5th Grade Teacher at Cragmont Elementary, Berkeley
Parents and Families
One in five children and teens have symptoms of a mental health disorder. Others may be bullied, violent, depressed, addicted, or at risk in other ways.
The Connection Practice prevents, resolves, and heals these issues. Learning it will help you model emotional self-regulation and self-care to your children. Integrating it into your family life will empower your children to develop deep self-confidence and access helpful insights. Families using Connection Practice Boards improve communication and prevent or peacefully resolve daily conflicts. The CP Boards are available to adults after taking a CP course or receiving CP coaching. The children’s CP Boards can be purchased here.
While your children will certainly benefit, so will you. This skill reduces stress, strengthens relationships, improves productivity at work and at home, and enhances well-being.
