Starting a Boosting Bravery Club
Young people are faced with many challenges in life, particularly in this digital age.
Social situations are complex and change quickly, not just in person but through various online spaces, like social media and video games.
Boosting Bravery aims to provide students with knowledge and practical skills to help them thrive in this digital age.
Getting Started
Follow these steps to start your Boosting Bravery club.
Identify if you need an adult supervisor
Check with your school principal or a teacher, advisor, or counselor to see whether you need an adult to supervise your groups. If you do, ask for guidance in selecting the right person to help implement the Boosting Bravery program.
Choosing an adult supervisor
An adult supervisor for the Boosting Bravery program could be a teacher or counselor sensitive to the impact of the digital age on mental wellness, who supports the program's goals, and is available to guide, support, and oversee the student-led sessions.
Gather a group
Once you have your school's approval, support, and an adult supervisor, you'll need to gather some peers. Use school channels, social media, or direct outreach to attract interested group members. You’ll need a group of 6-12 peers.
When & Where
Typically, once a week for eight weeks, after school or during lunch. You’ll need a meeting room or classroom with chairs. The provided materials include instructions for running the meetings, a script to follow, and handouts.
