 Leadership Development Program

Hope Collaborative is providing school and after-school programs with the technology and expert access they need to implement distributed leadership development and character-building workshops. The 4-year 12-module curriculum covers topics relevant to developing leadership skills that research has found to help young people thrive. Where there are major struggles in a disadvantaged family, skills are often developed by some members to counter them. Our program aims to help our partners identify such natural strengths in disadvantaged youth and promote them. Research credits success among disadvantaged young people who develop leadership capacities. Young people who face failure and then learn how to rebound are shown to do better than their counterparts who may be 'better off' but who do not have the same leadership capacities.

​Conflict Resolution
Key to successful people's toolboxes is the ability to resolve conflicts. Research shows that most adults struggle with difficult conversations and dealing with conflict. We teach specific tools and frameworks from the start.
Picture
Self-Awareness
Self-awareness is a life-long journey that best starts in the early child and teen years. Productive awareness of self requires capacities for self-reflection, awareness of emotions, feedback, and a curiosity about how one is impacting the social group and the school setting.
Picture
Relationship Skills
Starting the process of building healthy relationship skills at a young age gives kids and teens advantages that can carry them far.  Strong relationships with friends, family, teammates, classmates and coworkers are essential to success in any arena.
Picture
Team Building
Effective team building has been shown to be a primary driver in creating effective social groups, sports teams, and school collaborations. The elements of team building are highly teachable. From goal setting to role assignment, from understanding the strengths and weaknesses of participants, team building is a valuable asset to develop.

Overcoming Obstacles
Research suggests young
 people who learn how to problem solve and overcome obstacles are best suited to face life's challenges and mature into self-realized adults. We teach frameworks for overcoming obstacles, so that young people learn to face life's challenges--and be best prepared for life.

Trust and Values
Trust is an essential part of relationships, teams and school participation.

Developing a Strong Identity
People who value their individuality, as well as their membership in distinct communities, have a solid foundation on which to build personally meaningful futures.

Good Decision Making
Making decisions well is an essential skill for becoming an effective student, friend, and family member.  
Picture
Mindfulness and Focus
Mindfulness and focus are mission-critical capacities for young people to become effective students, leaders, and friends to  other students and to their communities. Both are learned skills with the right tools and approaches.

Picture
Self-Management
The ability to manage oneself is a critical capacity for achievement and a core asset in realizing one's potentials across a variety of life segments.  
Picture
Empathy and Emotional Intelligence
Harvard Publishing called Emotional Intelligence one of the most important advances understanding the way individuals work and interact  in the past several decades. Kids who develop EQ achieve and participate at high levels.

Picture
Building Self-Esteem
Positive self-worth is the key to both personal resilience and interpersonal success.
