How do we help students find their strengths so that they see a positive way forward? Positive youth influencer can forever change the trajectory of their students’ lives for the better. Many justice engaged youth, lacked trusted adults as they began to disengage from school. In addition, some of these youth confided in negative influencers such as gangs, to help guide them through life. This contributes to the cycles of recidivism for juveniles. What does the data tell us about these youth’s positive view of their futures? We have a conversation with Dana Bunnett, Director of Kids in Common (dbunnett@kidsincommon.org) , to discuss the most recent data on these topics. We also consult Abdul Duso, National Student Life Director at College Track to find out more about sense of purpose work. Abdul gives his insight on sense of purpose work with the juvenile justice student populations. Special thanks to our graphic artist, Tess Buckley.
