Other Health Education - Attitude
ATTITUDE is the youth education division of Parents Inc., dedicated to creatively teach life skills that will assist teenagers to make life-enhancing choices. The inspirational programmes encompass all aspects of total wellbeing and are a preventative strategy to youth suicide, teen pregnancy and the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STI’s).
ATTITUDE provides health education programmes to high school students. Using a variety of media, and a sometimes lateral approach, ATTITUDE equips teenagers with the information and skills they will need to negotiate their adolescent years and build meaningful lives. The materials, based on credible research and linked to the health curriculum, give young people strategies for solving problems, handling stress and negotiating relationships.
Here at WDSG we use ATTITUDE to deliver the following presentations in terms 1 &3:
Attitude
Ideas on how to ‘build’ a life with meaning, inspiring young people about their future and all the possibilities it could hold. It introduces the Attitude booklet, which covers the keys to mental health, and how to handle stress, anxiety, anger and problem solving. It majors on the ‘life messages’ teenagers need to grow mental and emotional resilience.
