Teens Take Action
About
Teens Take Action inspires teens to inventory their curiosities, find their voice, and take action.
Teens Take Action is a how-to platform that also connects teens to other teens. Whether it’s starting a business, inventing a product, or offering a service to their community, our goal is to help teens discover their strengths to make a positive difference - in their lives and in their communities.
Workshops
We offer two tracks
Idea > Action
A series of three one-hour workshops that guide teens through the process of taking inventory, identifying resources and making an action plan.
The curriculum is based on the workbook found in Gen Z Teens Take Action. The award- nominated book published this Spring spotlights 14 extraordinary teens who are transforming personal challenges into social change, nationally and in their own communities.
The workshops are availablethrough partnership with local Libraries, Schools, Teen Clubs, Community Play Spaces or on-demand (with a minimum of 6 participants).*
Storytelling
Through interactive workshops in a cohort of their peers, teens will develop the confidence and storytelling skills to explore their identity and embrace their uniqueness.
We will break down the elements of a story and learn how to form a narrative. We will practice in a safe space and learn emotional mastery tools.
We offer two courses:
-
This four-course series helps them tell their WHY behind the idea and make them ‘pitch ready’. With the momentum and skills in place to tell their story to partners, funders, customers and anyone else critical to starting their business, they develop the self-confidence to share their story and feel heard.
-
This is for teens who want to practice being heard. This eight-course series spends more time finding the important seeds of their personal story. We will also spend more time practicing storytelling in the safe environment of our cohort, giving and getting feedback, and using a toolbox of emotional self-mastery skills to help prepare for the inevitable jitters.
Storytelling courses are on-demand and require a minimum of four participants (friendship groups welcome!).
For more information on any of the three courses above, please email kelli@thechangeproject.co.
