Read on to find out how this programme turns lives around.
We guide young people from what is often the most vulnerable point in their lives
towards becoming confident, successful and independent young adults
HOW WE DO IT
The power of our programmes lies not only in what we teach, but how we teach it. Our methodology and training philosophy facilitates deep learning and provides people with skills and attributes that have a long-lasting and life-changing impact.
ADVANTAGED THINKING
We concentrate on young people’s skills, talents and abilities - not their weaknesses or past behaviours. By playing to their strengths we help them to discover and make the most of their skills and abilities and gain the confidence and self-worth they need to become active and successful members in society.
EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
We retain only 6-8% of what we hear, 28% of what we see, yet
we retain 80% of what we do. This is why all Chance for Change programmes focus on learning by doing,
facilitating learning on a deep level.
We teach young people to reflect and understand their own behaviour - why it is they do things. Then we provide them with the means to change their own behavioural patterns, a method of problem solving and life-skills which enable them to make positive life choices and become more effective.
CHOICE THEORY
Our unique method & ethos lead to outstanding results - for people and for charitable investors
WHY WE DO IT
We are passionate about Social Justice.
Our highly passionate staff team have strong values, exceptional backgrounds, vast combined knowledge and in-depth experience in national and international development work.
We operate as a cloud charity in order to keep overhead costs to an absolute minimum, ensuring that a maximum amount of invested funds goes to those in need. Therefore we do not have a fixed head office, we use technology for communication as much as possible, choose budget accommodation when travelling, cycle to meetings instead of using taxis and so on.
We really live and breathe our passion for making this world a more just and fair place and are committed to solutions that have a sustainable long-term positive impact.
Our hard-working and passionate staff team have established our outstanding local and international reputation, and high trust relationships with individuals, families, communities, courts, police and government bodies.
With the trust and support of communities behind us, our programmes and campaigns have an exceptional power and reach.
