Bobby Kipper and Bud Ramey, two best selling authors on youth
violence in America, offer you and your children the clear
information and tools needed to help navigate the dangerous
epidemic of bullying in America.
If your children haven't already been affected by bullying, it is
very likely on the way.
Published by the National Center for the Prevention of Community
Violence, led by career police officer Bobby Kipper, this concise
guide is designed to answer the plea heard all over America, "What
should I do?"
What should I do when my child's reputation is being destroyed
online? What do I do if my child becomes the bully? What do I do
when physical confrontation is inevitable? Should I confront the
parents of a bully?

Our children are in danger. Prepare for the eventual encounter
with Today's Bully. Make informed and thoughtful decisions on how
to handle these encounters.
Ultimately, "No BULLIES" and its predecessor "No COLORS -- 100
Ways to Stop Gangs from Taking Over Our Communities," together
address "best practices" for making a difference in the civility
crisis in our nation that is impacting an entire generation.
Throughout the years experts have struggled to define the term
"police culture." For most this label means a reactive approach to
keeping people safe by using punitive consequences to punish or
detain the perpetrators. The result: More attention is given to the
negative reactive side of policing than a positive proactive
approach to preventing crime by cultivating an interdependent
culture of residents looking out for the safety, health, and
well-being of each other. We believe police officers can play a
critical and integral role in achieving such a community of
compassion---an Actively Caring for People (AC4P) culture. An AC4P
culture can be fueled by AC4P Policing, and involves a paradigm
shift regarding the role and impact of "consequences." With AC4P
Policing, consequences are used to increase the quantity and
improve the quality of desired behavior. Police officers are
educated about the rationale behind using more positive than
negative consequences to manage behavior, and then they are trained
on how to deliver positive consequences in ways that help to
cultivate interpersonal trust and AC4P behavior among police
officers and the citizens they serve. This teaching/learning
process is founded on seven research-based lessons from
psychology---the science of human experience. The first three
lessons reflect the critical behavior-management fundamentals of
positive reinforcement, observational learning, and behavior-based
feedback. The subsequent four lessons are derived from humanism,
but behaviorism or ABS is essential for bringing these humanistic
principles to life. The result: humanistic behaviorism to enhance
long-term positive relations between police officers and the
citizens they serve, thereby preventing interpersonal conflict,
violence, and harm.
No Colors is a Warning No community wants to admit it has a gang
problem. Yet that denial and the unwillingness to address youth
violence as a community problem will have tragic consequences. If
your community does not address the crisis, the epidemic of youth
violence will erode your city or town with a potential that is both
frightening and tragic. We cannot wait on government to solve this
problem. We must approach the solution as a unified community. No
COLORS is a story of hope. Many cities are winning this battle for
the minds and hearts of our youth. No COLORS brings these success
stories to you to help you shape your community's plan... Citizens

Performance Driven Journal empowers readers of Performance Driven
Thinking to take the concepts and strategies they read and begin
implementing them immediately. Performance Driven Journal is an
accompanying "accelerator" program to take readers one step deeper
into the lifestyle change, as well as the sales funnel for
high-ticket programs like the Performance Driven Academy or
Mastermind. Many times, when readers experience an "a-ha" moment
while reading a book, they underline or circle a passage or
paragraph in it. But if they ever come back to it, by that time,
they've forgotten why it resonated in the first place. With a
guided tour of the original book, Performance Driven Journal breaks
down each concept into practical exercises where readers can write
out concrete steps or identify current shortcomings with how they
think. As they make use of the journal and the knowledge seeps into
their consciousness, the goal is to double the value of reading the
book and create raving fans who leave positive reviews and/or
invest in the larger coaching / mastermind offering.
Written by a seasoned law enforcement professional, Bobby Kipper,
Roll Call is a Christian Spiritual Guide for other law enforcement
professionals. Police work is a stressful and often dangerous job
that puts a burden on the individual that most people will never
understand. It also forces the police officer to see the world in a
very real light and that light is not always positive. Bobby Kipper
understands the challenges to staying spiritual in an often-harsh
world. It is easy to lose focus on a loving and caring God in the
midst of turmoil. It is easy to lose hope when a person sees so
much hopelessness. Roll Call is as an easy-to-carry book that an
officer can read in these troubling times. During a break from all
the chaos, the officer can read a quick chapter and refocus on a
loving God and the peace of Jesus. Roll Call is a "no-nonsense"
book that places the Christian Faith in the forefront of the
officers' lives. In these drastic times of today and with the
problems facing law enforcement, there is no better time for the
faith community to have a police "Roll Call."
