Emily Borrego, Heritage Elementary School Counselor

Pueblo School District 60, Pueblo, Colorado

“In the first meeting with Dr. DeNiro, I admit that I was skeptical, I  didn’t believe that this program would make a difference in student behavior towards each other! I was so wrong!! It was amazing to see the transformation from bullying to empathy building; to my students taking commitment and action against bullying. They loved the Solution teams-they were the integral part to the change!”
