Pat utilizes music and the arts as teaching tools to help teach methods and skills to prevent bullying and create a caring community. He utilizes his expertise as a program developer, counselor and song writer to create compelling song lyrics, and classroom and family activities, to help children learn life skills and retain the skills taught. Pat McManus began his career as a counselor utilizing songs as teaching tools with teens at a hospital in-patient alcoholism and drug treatment unit. Pat used music in therapy to reach and teach kids that could not be reached through traditional therapeutic approaches. Pat created a program to help reduce weekend elopements from treatment. This program required that each patient played a needed role in the production of an interactive program that was affectionately called “Pat and The Addicts.” Pat also used music in therapy at Story County Hospital working with patients with anorexia and bulimia. Ray Johnson, a broadcaster, and Pat McManus founded Rock In Prevention (Rock) in 1990. The program founding sponsor was the Iowa Broadcasters Association which helped the program grow very fast. Today, Rock In Prevention has received several honors and has trained over 1.5 million students and teachers in 14 states. The current mission of Rock In Prevention, Inc. is to use music and interactive curriculum to teach students, teachers, parents and guardians, methods and skills to prevent bullying and alcohol, tobacco and other drug use. Rock teaches children and families life skills for success, health and wellness, personal and social skills and increases parental involvement in children’s education. Students are taught realistic refusal skills to alcohol, tobacco and other drugs. A child’s ability to learn is significantly diminished when they are in a school where they do not feel safe and supported. Rock curriculum helps create a caring community through training students, parents and teachers how to be up-standers and heroes for one another. Students, teachers and parents are trained in what to say and what to do when confronted with bullying situations.
