| Kids at Hope is a positive youth development strategy that can transform your classroom, school, and community. Learn how elementary/middle school physical education teachers, as well as university methods instructors and a camp professional are utilizing this belief system within their instructional and learning environments.
The presenters will explain how easy it is to transform how some children are viewed… from ‘youth at risk’ to all children being ‘Kids at Hope,’ no exceptions! Given the right tools and environment, all children can succeed. Let us share with you how. |
