Assembly Info and Video Trailer


WearTheCape09 - bruce stop and thinkAt the beginning of 2016, Wear the Cape unveiled an assembly to reach kids far and wide—at schools, religious organizations, clubs and more. Rather than remaining bystanders, kids walk away from the interactive presentation equipped with the strategies and skills needed to prevent and stop bullying. A relatable sequence of videos, in combination with an in-person facilitator, shows the anti-bullying tactics in practice.

The engaging, hour-long assembly teaches kids that it’s cool to be kind. Cape Kids, who are the face of the organization, are featured in the assembly video and share their unique perspectives, having either experienced bullying or stood up for a bullying victim. With the help of their stories, children in the assembly audience will be able to make connections, practice anti-bullying skills, and learn the strategies needed to be a positive force in their communities and be “better than that” – better than bad choices including bullying.

“A truly positive approach to a very serious topic.” – Barbara Heteji, Sundance School’s Director of Education

WearTheCape02 -Angel, You're better than that speech bubblePre and post-assembly, teachers, administrators and group leaders are given support as part of the program. Guided by a character education expert and based on the organization’s needs, Wear the Cape offers lesson plans, roundtable workshops, and further reading for families, educators, and youth club leaders.

The kidkind foundation will be bringing the assembly to five underprivileged elementary schools in New Jersey for free. With a $500 tax-deductible donation, you too can gift the assembly presentation to an underprivileged elementary school or organization—at cost.

For all other schools and organizations, send an email to leighann@wearthecapekids.com to inquire about rates and for more information. To ask your child’s elementary school to consider bringing Wear the Cape’s assembly to its student body, we invite you to use the School Request Letter that you can easily modify and email to guidance counselors, principals, teachers and/or PTAs and PTOs.
