Benefits of Offering CMB Kids in Your Area

1. Improve academic performance by building positive relationships between teachers and children. Teachers can focus on teaching, not coping with behavioral problems.

2. Enhance peer relationships. Children get along and respect one another, inspired by an understanding of empathy and heightened sense of responsibility, they exhibit caring and concern for the well being of others as well as themselves.

3. Teach children social and emotional skills early. It’s a great way to start them off with a positive attitude and to ease the transition into adolescence.

4. Minimal start-up costs. This program is offered at an affordable fee. You can easily recoup the cost of the program within months of beginning your first sessions. As the program gains recognition and results, referrals start rolling in from parents, educators and professionals. The program has been proven successful in Las Vegas, NV for over 10 years.

5. Low operating costs. The ancillary costs associated with operating a program are the costs of workbooks, art materials and snacks. Advertising and marketing are at the discretion of the business owner and vary in each market. A variety of marketing materials are available for download from the Licensee section of the CMB web site. The best form of advertising is referrals and that is free. Use your contacts – friends, teachers, mental health professionals and school counselors - as a grass roots marketing campaign.

6. Program is flexible. You can arrange the program to fit your current work schedule. Because the program is so well defined, easy to follow, comprehensive and well organized, your prep time is minimal.

7. Recognition from the community. As your program builds momentum so does your reputation as a leader in the community. SEL is not a new topic but a “hot” topic today among child development professionals because it dramatically and positively affects academic achievement, social skills and emotional behavior in kids.
