Building Self Worth in Teens

Our young people struggle with fitting in.  They want to be popular, liked, and followed.  Social media has robbed them of the ability to develop healthy relationships. Instead, they follow "friends", people they don't know, who manipulate them into doing and becoming someone other than themselves.

It is important for youth to understand what friendship is and how to cultivate relationships that last a lifetime.  The Options program of the K Foundation includes a section in its curriculum on building and maintaining friendships.
