Welcome to The AVERT
Project.
The AVERT Project recognizes the notion that when people
holding positions of authority over others lack the capacity
for empathy their potential for inappropriate and/or violent
behavior is greatly increased. Whether they are politicians,
business leaders, parents, teachers, military personnel or
members of law enforcement, if they lack the capacity for
empathy they run the risk of abusing their position,
unwittingly or not, and violating those in their charge.
The AVERT Project is an interactive and highly effective
training program that has shown to decrease the risk of
institutional violence by establishing a system-wide model
for behavioral accountability---one that improves relations
among staff and those they serve while reversing the
problem of staff burnout. In-house personnel are trained
how to implement AVERT for their institutions by utilizing
specifically designed media, workbooks, and advanced
role-training techniques that are the product of over twenty
years of experience in the field.
