Overview
Respect Challenges, Inc. is the distributor of evidence-based The Choice Game curriculum. The Choice Game curriculum helps build strong moral decision-making skills for young people within an interactive computer environment.
The story lines and the language help young people in each version make decisions and then deal with the consequences of their choices. Celebrity actors like Stephen Baldwin, Joe Mantegna and Malcolm-Jamal Warner all help the young person to realize that today's decisions can have far reaching consequences.
