Testimonials

“This program is highly impactful… easy to implement and extremely effective. I believe that it is essential for schools to come together to share real life lessons with our students in the hopes of helping our kids make successful choices in life. This program saves lives. I hope this program finds its way to other high schools, knowing that distracted driving is the #1 killer of American teens.”

Student

“In One Instant accomplishes the very important job of teaching our students how to make smart choices, how to stay alive, how to stay safe, how to take care of each other. That’s the most important gift you can give to a school.”

 

Monica Iannessa

Assistant Principal, Palisades Charter High School

“The program clearly showed the peer pressure involved between friends, and my son and I realize that we have the right to make a decision that is safe and smart, even if it disappoints friends… We as a family have decided to just TURN THE PHONE OFF WHILE DRIVING. That way we are not distracted by texts or calls, and when we arrive safely, we can return any messages that came in while we were driving.”
