The content of the Taking Charge of My Life program is designed to appeal to people in a variety of settings. It cuts across socio-economic, racial and ethnic lines.

Don't let the simplicity fool you for it presents life-changing ideas in a clear, concise, easy to understand way.

Below are suggested settings in which the material would be highly effective.

Classrooms: Public or private institutions

The material in the program would fit well in health, social studies, and psychology classes.

Depending on the technology available, students could view the online video, read the e book , have classroom sets of the paperback books, or a power point presentation and break into discussion groups at appropriate intervals (see Instructor's Guide)

Individual: A student can work on his/her own by reading the material, regardless of the format, (paperback book, e book, online video) and by doing the exercises at the end of each chapter or session.

Small Groups: Examples of small groups where the Taking Charge program would be very helpful are:

• Peer counseling programs
• Teen mothers and pregnant teen programs
• Drug prevention and rehabilitation programs
  

One on One Counseling: The material could enhance the effectiveness of the counseling sessions.

Other: YMCA, Boys and Girls Clubs, Church groups
