Effective tools for educators and others to teach morals utilizing The Way to Happiness precepts have been developed through three decades of experience.

Public service announcements (PSAs) spread the message broadly, and a book-on-film is used widely by teachers, professors, business executives, law enforcement, community leaders, doctors, lawyers, correctional officers and clergy to help others lead happier and more honest lives through application of the precepts of The Way to Happiness.
