Youth Development - Roanoke, Family Service of Roanoke Valley

Positive Action is for elementary students to focus on "feeling good" about themselves. Project Aim is for ages 11-14 and provides them with the motivation to make safe choices to address deeper barriers to sexual risk prevention such as hopelessness, poverty, and risk opportunities in low-income environments. The children and youth who participate in these programs develop self-esteem, learn to make wise choices for themselves and focus on the importance of others. The TOP (Teen Outreach Program), is an evidence based national program using leadership development classes and community service learning to lead teens toward productive decisions and positive behaviors. Leadership development topics include: self esteem, communication, values, goal setting, decision making, conflict resolution, relationships, and health education. This program takes place at 13 different partner locations and is for middle and high school students.
