@youthworxgood
While using these approaches/lessons, you're going to hold several deep and
authentic conversations with students. They are expressing themselves and
entrusting you. There are a few things that will help you navigate these
engaging and important conversations.
If a student is going to harm themselves or others, you are a mandated
reporter, follow your schools or programs policy and procedures.

@youthworxgood
Summer programs are successful when they provide

every aspect of our students progress and development,
and prepare resilient learners and leaders.
