Wakanheza Project, The
The Wakanheza Project gives schools, teachers, parents, and communities tangible, easy to use tools that work to reduce tension and barriers that lead to harsh words or actions.

Implementing The Wakanheza Project in your school is simple. It is based on the same fundamental principles that all educators know will enhance student learning and success, as well as enhancing teacher, staff, and parent satisfaction: create caring, welcoming environments.

The Wakanheza Project is a statewide partnership of the Minnesota Children's Museum, Minnesota Department of Education, Minnesota Elementary School Principals' Association (MESPA), Minnesota Parent-Teacher Association, Twin Cities Public Television, and the Initiative for Peaceful Families and Communities in Ramsey County.
