Module One: Finding Inner Strength |
Exploring the Spiritual Self
Starting off Create! Opportunity is a unit exploring the sources of self-motivation and inner strength through the concepts of belonging, purpose, compassion, forgiveness, character and Inspiration. All of these concepts stem from inner strength and self-motivation, and as each concept is explored, they will serve to fortify and support development of inner strength, as each participant identifies their source(s) of motivation.

Module Two: Social Skills |
|
As a critically important unit in the development of life skills, the unit on social skills will continue to be addressed through the other units in various applications and discussions. Here, we seek to spark an awareness of one's own cultural identity and how that identity influences customs and values. With this awareness of a self-identity, we will then broaden the horizons to explore other customs and values that are influenced by other cultural backgrounds.
