A sense of purpose acts as an inner compass that—when combined with skills training and community support—allows young people to live in alignment with their highest potential. Thus, we have developed a research & evidence-based purpose development methodology and curriculum that we have implemented in-school and out-of-school with high school students in Chicago, Newark, New York, San Antonio and Seattle. Through this direct programming, we have cultivated a deep understanding of the implementation needs of our purpose development program. Leveraging these insights, we are establishing a teacher training program and school-based curriculum that will allow a growing number of high schools to cultivate a sense of purpose in the lives of their students.
