"Clash Of The Species"
(Conflict Resolution for the Next Generation)

Dear Concerned Principal, Teacher and Parent,

KIDS ARE KILLING KIDS!

How are you confronting the violence in your school?

We are losing the moral and social battle for the minds and hearts of our most precious resource…our children. We are losing our young people to the violent influences permeating today's music, movies and video games. Our kids are facing tough challenges never before experienced by previous generations which require unique solutions and a whole new set of effective communication skills.

The following information addresses the serious issues that you and your faculty encounter on a daily basis. Professional Training Dynamics (PTD), a company founded in 1973 and dedicated to the personal enrichment and development of professionals around the world, is now focusing its energies and talents on solutions for these troubled times and serious issues among our young people.

PTD has developed a successful and practical program currently enjoying rave reviews from students across the nation. "Clash of the Species" is a down-to-earth, entertaining, two-part workshop geared to providing realistic skills and responses to conflict for your students, as well as your faculty.

We implore you to take a few minutes to carefully read over the enclosed material. PTD is ready to partner with you in the common goal of equipping our kids with alternative solutions to destructive behaviors. 

Together…let's teach them to use words to resolve conflict rather than violence and weapons!

Most sincerely yours,

Cherie Cross, President PTD
Judy Bailey CEO PTD
