Objectives
The Lead & Seed program strives to meet five objectives when working with youths: (1.) Build human, technical and financial capacities (2.) Change policies, practices and procedures (3.) Utilize print, broadcast, and electronic media (4.) Cultivate advocacy skills (5.) Build leadership skills.
Theory of change
- We need to educate youth about alcohol, tobacco, other drugs, violence and bullying.
- With that education they’ll be aware of activities they should be involved in.
- Involvement in good activities will make them stronger and better people.
- They will enjoy the approval of their actions.
- They will not want to risk going back to actions that could lead to disapproval.
We believe that when the principles taught in our “Theory of Change” are applied a reduction in the use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs along with a reduction in violence and bullying among youth will result.
