About DEF and What We Do
The Decision Education Foundation (DEF) is an 501c3 non-profit working to improve the lives of young people by empowering them with effective Decision Skills.
We teach teens how to decide, not what to decide, helping them to make better decisions, experience improved life outcomes, and create a better world for themselves and society.
