The Be the Change Workshop will help you create closer relationships with your friends and family, and give you the inspiration, hope, and compassion that we all want and need! You will:

• Learn and practice safe, healthy, and effective ways for dealing with and expressing emotions.
• Learn how you can make the most of every day, even when things happen that you don’t like, or are out of your control.
• See that other people may have gone through the same types of things, or might understand how you are feeling.
• Step outside your comfort zone in fun and exciting ways!

"This workshop literally saved my life! I learned I am not alone and that I can reach out for support - I can't wait to talk with my parents." - Mary B - Student

The workshop builds on Challenge Day's simple three-step Formula for Change
—Notice, Choose & Act— by adding even more fun, friendship and acceptance. And, you don’t even need to go to a Challenge Day first!

You can truly BE THE CHANGE you wish to see in every part of your life!
