A
comprehensive process that promotes active and lasting
changes towards achieving one's life goals
|

|
America's
Rising Stars is in part based on recognizing the Search Institute's forty developmental assets, experiences, opportunities, and internal capacities essential for health and success in our complex society. Search Institute is an independent, nonprofit, nonsectarian organization located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, whose mission is to advance the well being of adolescents and children by generating knowledge and promoting its application.
The
process capitalizes on relevancy (taken from need analysis), Action Plans (goals based on measurable objectives),
reinforcement (the action plan and alumni to share experiences and help overcome obstacles) and most importantly, repetition (consistent, positive reinforcement).
The
outline below summarizes the high level content of the process as
delivered to the students. This process typically is presented in a
two work sessions each week over an ten week period.
