Choosing Peace Youth is a program tailored for young people navigating the challenges of communication, identity, and relationships. It teaches that trying to control others rarely leads to true belonging or freedom, and instead equips youth with skills to make healthier choices. Participants explore the reality that everyone shares the same basic needs: love, belonging, power, freedom, fun, and survival, and that the key is finding positive ways to meet them. With encouragement and guidance, youth learn how to replace ineffective behaviors with new ones that promote respect, connection, and personal growth.
