Classroom and Behavior Management Help Site for Teachers Expands Free Services to Educators

The free help areas are offered as a community service. Youth Change is a longtime national provider of professional development workshops and inservice training to schools, conferences, and agencies. Among the new additions to the web site, youth workers can now find dozens of education articles (http://www.youthchg.com/education.html) listing specific strategies to manage problem behaviors in the classroom. Also new, youth professionals can post questions to the new Classroom Management Q & A Forum for Teachers (http://www.youthchg.com/violence.html), and receive extensive expert input.
