I'm Determined

I'm Determined project features tools to help goal-attaining whether at home, school, or in everyday life. Or how we can approach resolution or problem-solving. 

Throughout life, we will encounter many problems that seem tough to solve, at least without some help. That help can be found on imdetermined.org, with their "Problem-Solving" guide. Watch the scenario videos about a high school girl who struggles to solve an issue with her friend until she receives support from her parents and teachers. Another scene shows a fight between two brothers and their different perspectives on why the fight started. Using viewpoints and support from others can be a great way to solve problems that you can't deal with by yourself.

How do you solve problems? Can you give any examples? Let us know in the comments below! For youth and young adults, ages 13-26, join us on the SPAN Youth Chat on Wednesdays from 3:30-4:00 PM.

Stronger Together: Finding Strength in Shared Journeys, featuring Growing Up Online

There’s something really special about talking to someone who has gone through the same things you have. They understand in a way that others might not, because they’ve lived it too. When people with similar life experiences support each other, it can make a big difference. It helps you feel less alone, gives you hope, and often brings helpful advice that comes from real experience. Whether it’s dealing with a disability, mental health, or big life changes, support from someone who “gets it” can truly change your life.

Summer Bonds That Last Beyond the Season, featuring Waze To Adulthood

Summer is a great time to spend more time with friends and even make new ones. Without school, homework, and busy schedules, you have more freedom to hang out and do fun things together.

The long days and warm weather make it easier to enjoy each other’s company and grow closer as friends.
