Decisions Change Lives
Every day, teens face challenging decisions that can have significant impacts on their lives. In a world of choices, developing the skills to think through decisions is essential.
And yet, our schools struggle to find the time and materials to teach students the critical thinking and decision skills they need for success. DEF focuses on teaching students 21st century skills using the Decision Quality methodology.
DEF wants to equip the teens in communities everywhere with the decision tools to create a great future. For instance, we are recruiting partner schools for StrongStart, a week-long orientation program for incoming high school 9th graders. Find more possibilities to learn from us under What We Do.
