Social Wellness

Building new connections and establishing identities outside of the context of the family is a normal part of healthy development. Interacting with people outside of the family circle can teach adolescents how to maintain healthy relationships in different contexts and identify roles they can play in the broader community. ACT will foster a safe place for youth to develop a strong social network.

Academics

Research suggests that emotional well-being is linked to academic engagement and that social and emotional competencies, can promote academic engagement via emotional well-being. ACT hopes to create a love for learning with the belief that when students experience positive affect, such as enjoyment and interest in schoolwork, they tend to exhibit more energy and effort, which influence their attitudes toward learning and encourage them to engage more in learning tasks.
