MANUALS AND LONG-TERM TRAINING PROGRAMS READY FOR IMPLEMENTATION

 

HIV EMPOWERMENT AND LEADERSHIP PROGRAM (H.E.L.P.)

 

This is a 25 week training program (ninety minutes per training, which can be broken up into 50 forty-five minute trainings) that provides youth with important skills such as acquiring values, being non-judgmental, proper communication, along with the correct facts in HIV, AIDS, sexually transmitted infections, and risk reduction. By creating this program we are reducing the risk that youth will make unhealthy choices for themselves based on incorrect or no information at all. Participation in this program will heed comfortability in public speaking, increased self esteem, improvement in all areas of a participant’s life, a mandatory HIV Education Service Project, and the ability to act as role models for their peers. This is WOO’s most popular program to date. Participants will receive a Certificate of Completion.

 

YOUTH LEADERSHIP/COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM

 

This program is exactly the same as H.E.L.P., with the HIV component taken out. In place of the HIV component, each youth will get to choose a charity/cause that they will use throughout the 25 weeks as a platform to learn key leadership components. The program will culminate in a required community service project. Participants will receive a Certificate of Completion.

 

THE INNER YOU (Detailed and impacting program on Eating Disorder prevention)

 

Very similar to the H.E.L.P. program, The Inner You is an eating disorders prevention program that consists of 10 trainings (ninety minutes per training). The innovative and impacting program will surely change student’s lives for the better. This program can be extended to 13 weeks if there is a wish for youth to train their peers on how to present workshops or complete a community wide service project on eating disorders to their peers.
