RACE TO NOWHERE, a film by Vicki Abeles, highlights the unintended consequences of our pressure-cooker culture and education system. It is a call to action for families, educators, and policy makers to challenge current assumptions on how to best prepare the youth of America to become healthy, bright, contributing and leading citizens. The film has been seen in more than 5,000 communities, in over 30 countries, reaching over one million viewers in grassroots screenings.
