They will learn to:

Accomplish change. 

I will ask compelling questions to elicit discussion. I will also provide a roadmap to making one's own organization. 

The class will involve peer discussion and brainstorming. 

Children will be able to see that they can have a role in decision-making and an impact on the world.

We will discuss strategies for creating change and roadmaps for achieving goals. 

What is required is a deep desire for personal growth and change in the world; a desire to organize one's peers to take action.
