Event Description:

The Why Try? evidenced based program is a set of practical visual metaphors to teach pro-social alternatives to overcome problems with which at-risk youth struggle: basic problem solving, anger management, understanding consequences of their decisions, removing negative labels, dealing with peer pressure, living & keeping society's laws & rules, building a support system, & having goals & a vision of the future. The visual analogies are learned through a multisensory approach that resonates with youth to effect more positive outcomes.
