Links and comments on what’s being done out in the world for adolescents–by and for them–in an authentic, honest and powerful way:
Challenge Day (www.challengeday.org)
See a video about the program here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aKmMGsRvDA
Sorry, folks. MTV generally sucks…but this is one thing they’ve put on television that is fantastic. ”If You Really Knew Me” is an MTV show about Challenge Day.
Roadtrip Nation (www.roadtripnation.com)
This program is all about helping teens find and define their own road in life. Great program. Great idea. You can see the program in action on the PBS show of the same name, “Roadtrip Nation.”
