All Access CARE Pass

OELC/CASO CARES, Community Action Ripple Effect Strategy (CARES), will support our leaders to help create connections in their homes and communities. This summer’s offerings will focus on the development of resilience for our young leaders during this time. Based on positive psychology founder, Martin Seligman’s principle of PERMA: positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning and achievement; youth will be provided intentional opportunities to connect with one another, direct energy toward purpose and reflect on their growth during this time.

Through the All-Access CARE Pass, participants will have drop-in access to a host of opportunities including but not limited to: Resilient Me Workshops, Reflectivityship, Skills Corner, Keynotes and Roundtable Discussions. Optional opportunities such as E-Cabins, Clubs and Movements require a weekly commitment but are completely optional. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in learning and self growth at their own pace with our very own Resilient Me Journal!

Youth will be provided a variety of flexible opportunities to learn, connect and grow over the summer. Our 5-week approach gives our youth and staff a much deserved breather from online environments at year-end and before September start-up. We recognize the diverse needs and desires of our youth. With this, we have built a completely scalable opportunity for fun, learning, connection and engagement as actively or passively as you wish this summer. To lead well, we need to be well!
