  • Rachel's Challenge is an organization in the United States that works to reduce violence. It is a non-religious, non-profit, non-political organization, led by Darrell Scott and his wife Sandy. Rachel Scott was the first student to be killed in the Columbine High School shooting in 1999. Darrell Scott, Rachel's father, established Rachel's Challenge to perpetuate his daughter's example and the two-page "Code of Ethics" she wrote a month before her death at the hands of the perpetrators of the Columbine High School shooting, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. This code of ethics had included the words: "Compassion is the greatest form of love humans have to offer", and Darrell Scott has stated his belief in this message forms the basis for what he both speaks at public appearances, and has written as an author. The Rachel’s Challenge presentations are given in schools and communities by members of her family and other speakers, using video footage of the Columbine High School massacre and its aftermath, combined with Rachel Scott’s drawings and writings, in a campaign to quell school violence, bullying, and teen suicide. As of 2009, Rachel's Challenge has developed a team of 30 speakers addressing young people in schools and colleges worldwide about Rachel's example. The Rachel's Challenge program includes establishing Friends of Rachel clubs in schools, following the initial presentation, to sustain the campaign's goals on a long-term basis. Schools around the country have incorporated Rachel's challenge into their own clubs bringing the message to their students. (en)
  • Rachel's Challenge é uma organização nos Estados Unidos que luta para reduzir a violência. É uma organização não-religiosa, sem fins lucrativos, e não-política, conduzida por Darrell Scott e sua esposa, Sandy. Rachel Scott foi a primeira aluna morta no massacre de Columbine na Columbine High School, em 1999. Darrell Scott, o pai de Rachel, oficializou o Rachel's Challenge para eternizar o exemplo de sua filha e o "Código de Ética", de duas páginas, que ela escreveu um mês antes de sua morte nas mãos dos autores do massacre na Columbine High School, Eric Harris e Dylan Klebold. Este código de ética incluía as palavras: "A compaixão é a maior forma de amor que os seres humanos têm a oferecer", e Darrell Scott afirmou que sua crença nessa mensagem constitui a base para o que ele fala nas aparições públicas e para o que ele escreveu como autor. O Rachel's Challenge é apresentado em escolas e comunidades pelos membros da família de Rachel Scott e outros palestrantes, usando imagens de vídeo do massacre de Columbine e suas consequências, combinadas com os desenhos e as escritas de Rachel Scott, em uma campanha para reprimir a violência escolar, o bullying, e o suicídio de adolescentes. A partir de 2009, o Rachel's Challenge já havia desenvolvido uma equipe de 30 palestrantes, que abordavam jovens em escolas e faculdades em todo o mundo para falar sobre o exemplo de Rachel. O programa Rachel's Challenge inclui o estabelecimento dos clubes Friends of Rachel nas escolas, seguindo pela apresentação inicial, para sustentar os objetivos da campanha em uma base de longo prazo. As escolas ao redor do país incorporaram o Rachel's Challenge em seus clubes, trazendo a mensagem aos seus alunos. (pt)
