The Youth Matters program is a series of school based modules that address issues and skills relevant to students and their school community.  This program is very unique compared to others of its kind.  In the Youth Matters program the presenter doesn’t give students information as much as they give them the opportunity to learn from their own experience.  Students don’t just “Learn Stuff”, they personalize each topic or skill and apply it to their everyday lives.  In this way, the Youth matters program is guided by the presenter, powered by the students.

Each program will be presented by a highly qualified, trained staff person.  Some features of the program include:

• Discussions
• Videos
• Stories
• Skills
