these crossroads alone. He
needs the guidance, modeling and passion of the enlightened
adult. |

In summary, WORK for the Adolescent
• Valorizes his person,
•
Makes his academics relevant and engaging,
• Interests him to entrepreneurship,
• Gives him a keen sense of adaptability,
• Ushers him to the socio-economic world,
and
• Allows him to see his value in
serving his community |
Indeed, there cannot be a better way to prepare the
youth for life.

physical maturity is attained is a delicate and
difficult time, because of the rapid development
and change which the organism must go through."
