These programs offer a unique combination of experiences that help a young person on their purpose journey. The curriculum offers a purpose-centered
approach to career guidance and coaching. In addition to the programs and the curriculum, we also have what we call “Tribes” that support the core programs.
Tribes are groups of like-minded youth who have the same occupation or interests.
