TRUE Change Core Programs

• Group Coaching | This curriculum-based approach takes a cohort of 6-12 participants, ages 15-19, through 12 group sessions where we discuss topics to help enhance their personal, emotional, financial, career development.

• “Pull Up” Community Events | These events allow self-motivated teens to connect with young professionals in a casual and non-intimidating environment. Both young participants and parents will get a chance to learn about top-of-mind topics, develop networking skills, and build organic relationships in a low-risk environment.

• Day in the Life | Participants will get a chance to have a one-on-one interview with a senior leader in the profession of their choice. Opportunities range from full-day shadowing to virtual coffee meetings and are created to give youth exposure and insight on how to reach their career goals.

 

TRUE Change Signature Workshops

• Values To Vision | Students identify their core values, create a personal mission statement, and develop a planning process to support wise and deliberate decision-making.

• Health & Wealth MAGIC | Students gain tools to help manage money, emotions, and relationships. M.A.G.I.C. stands for Mindfulness, Attitude, Gratitude, Inspiration, and Circle of Support.

• 5 C’s of Connection | Establishing, building, and maintaining diverse and inclusive relationships are key to both individual and team success. During this workshop, we engage the audience to focus on enhancing tools to effectively connect with people of different cultures, races, genders, and life experiences.
