Well-being is fundamental to learning, thriving and succeeding in
life. Well-being is cultivated through the strengthening of resiliency and life
skills. Studies show that when youth name, notice and reflect on their
experiences, thought and emotion processes, behaviors and social interactions
in a positive and welcoming environment, they are better equipped to
proactively respond to challenging life situations, more ready to learn and better
able to perform in educational and work settings.
Prime Time Palm Beach County’s Well-being and Life Skills
Initiative is an
innovative professional learning opportunity designed to build resiliency and
life skills among children and youth in afterschool based on best practices in
the field and in alignment with national and state health and resiliency
standards. This new initiative is focused on building an afterschool
climate and culture whereby youth thrive physically, mentally, emotionally, and
socially, succeed in academic and extracurricular endeavors, build more
positive and productive relationships, and engage in acts of kindness and
service to others. Participants
journey through practices and inquiry to deepen their socio-emotional
resilience, improve their work and personal relationships and better respond to
the demands of being an out-of-school time professional.
What each participant will gain
from the series:
- Personalized coaching and modeling in supporting youth resiliency
and behavior needs
- Tools for self-care, personal development and emotional intelligence
at work
- Lesson plan support to facilitate Afternoon Meeting well-being
circles with youth
- Curriculum materials with well-being
