There’s More to it!
Putting It All Together! A Game Plan for Being Involved in Your Community! 1. What is my “spark?” Individual? Team? Find Hope & Vision! 2. What is my “personal megaphone?” School? Community Betterment? Take Action! 3. Who is in my “paper chain?” Adult mentors? Trips/conferences? Lead Positive Change!
Tell Your Story! “Youth are Community Problem-Solvers Right NOW!”
Keep discovering your “sparks” and using them to better your communities!
Discover your “voice” as a teen and find ways to come to the table with adult leaders and decision-makers to engage the issues you care about!
Keep growing your “relationships” with caring adults and seizing “opportunities” to become a leader and problem-solver in your school and community!
