JUST FOR ME

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Being a teenager is hard, and even the most well-meaning adults can’t always relate to the struggles today’s teens are facing. Regardless of the amount of support they have, it is easy for teens to fall into cycles of depression, insecurity, academic failure, isolation and deep struggles with mental and physical health. When teens don’t have a high level of stable support, it’s easier than ever for them to make unsafe choices.

That’s where Just For Me can help. This teen and preteen class is a non-judgmental environment, allowing for the development of trust between the participants and the facilitator. Just For Me provides a program structure that addresses the needs of teens, especially those that are struggling academically, socially, personally, mentally or any combination of ways. The goal is to provide a positive experience for the teens to focus on themselves, this leading to positive impacts on their lives.

Just For Me programming is a true collaboration, since the participants weigh in on what

THEY need in today's world.

Sessions can include: 

• watching the Netflix documentary Bully
• Communication Skills: nonverbal vs. verbal, and communication, or being assertive vs. passive aggressive
