Solid Transitions
Wouldn’t it be great if your teen took charge of their lives?
In Solid Transitions we answer the question; How do we engage the teen through experiences that give them a marked, holistic and smooth transition into adulthood. Such a teen though not yet a ‘perfect adult’ is aware and understands the responsibilities of adulthood and has an internal drive to learn and build their capacity into adulthood. The programme runs for a year.
A sense of responsibility normally rests upon a person if they know the buck stops with them. How do we pass that sense of responsibility to the teens such that even if they are not yet showing the traits of adulthood, they are working towards that?
Solid transitions involve having monthly sessions with the teens where they undergo an experience in the form of an activity meant to instill certain teachings and values in them. After the activity they are debriefed then given simple, intuitive and practical assignments which they complete before the next session. These assignments are meant to bring out a deeper understanding of themselves and help them find practical expressions of what they are learning.
At the end of the year, the teens are graduated in an intimate session where the parents/ guardians invite few persons who are significant to the teen. These persons will then charge the teen into adulthood.
