My New Outside Blog: Sacramento Moral Values Program

Rico Rivera talks about a charity that is near and dear to his heart, the Moral Values Program of Sacramento.

There is general agreement that a major cause of crime is the lack of values taught to children. Too many of them are being raised without the benefit of loving, responsible and competent adults who teach them right from wrong. Too many children are not learning to feel joy at others' joy, or sadness at their sadness. Too many children are not learning to feel pride and satisfaction at doing the right thing, or remorse and guilt when doing wrong.

The practice of these values will result in improved school attendance and grades, improved behavior, and the development of a caring, self-reliant human being.
