Value UP: Raising the Value of Human Life

Value UP: Raising the Value of Human Life

Featured expert: Mike Donahue

ORIGINAL WEBINAR FOR TEENS: TUESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2022

Description

After partnering with thousands of schools and speaking/listening to educators and students, Mike has come to understand that so many teen issues are directly related to how students view themselves. If a student believes they have high intrinsic value and identify with this high value, they make life choices that match their perceived value identity. Students who value and respect themselves make positive life choices and show greater value and respect to others. Value Up was created to amplify that value in every student, resulting in strengthening a positive school culture. 

Learning Objectives
• Everyone has a story, and that story really does matter.  
• Why someone is doing something is much more important than what they are doing. 
• You can’t just mask the issues, they must be dealt with. 
• Just like you can’t remove the value from a piece of gold, you can’t remove your value either. It’s built in, it belongs to you.
