Virtual Reality (VR) Peace Literacy in Schools to Decrease Youth Violence
Nationally, in 2020, there were 100,000 violent crimes committed by youth between the ages of 12-17. In Michigan: 5,402, 5,710, and 6,600 were the reported numbers of violent victimizations reported in schools in 2015, 2017, and 2018 respectively, according to the National Center For Education Statistics (NECS).
My name is Dr. Erica Robertson, former Superintendent of a K-12 school district in Detroit, MI, and the current CEO of Little Black Girl Adventures Publishing House, which focuses on developing the healthy whole child through literacy, languages, laughter, and love. My personal mission statement is “Helping Heal the Fabric of Communities.” I want to partner with you to invest in Virtual Reality Innovative Peace Literacy in Michigan schools which provides our youth with the tools needed to increase hope, empathy, and conflict resolution, increase mental health outcomes, promote healthy brain development, and decrease youth violence.
