The
Rock Solid Foundation WITS program was piloted
in School District #61 (Greater Victoria Schools)
in the school year of 1998/99, in partnership
with the University of Victoria Centre for Youth
and Society. It was a resounding success and as
a result we implemented the program in most District
#61 classrooms in October 1999. Currently 62 schools
have the program. The Centre for Youth and Society has completed a 3-year assessment of the
program in the fall of 2003. 2004 they embarked on another 3 year program. The goal is to expand
this program to all schools on Vancouver Island,
the province, and eventually across Canada.
