1. Voice Aloud My Possibility
   

This initiative invites youth to create and share a vision of the world they want to live in. Beginning with the question, “what change would you like to see happen in your community?” teens are guided to reflect first on how they can enact that change in themselves. The process continues with narrative writing from their own histories followed by a re-writing presenting their future visions. The final outcome is a recorded guided imagery visualization that can be shared with their community. This is a web-based initiative. Youth will be able to upload their visualization recordings and listen to the visions of others. The site will offer a free down-loadable teacher’s manual for facilitating the creation process, as well as a template for youth to create their visualizations online.
