I checked out the video and I think one way to help at risk youth make the most of their educational experience is to set them up with mentors, people that have lived very similar circumstances so they can relate. I think a one on one relationship really helps anyone!

Make sure you let them know you are there for them to talk too and that you love them unconditionally.

I think that the most important thing for at risk teens is that you believe that they can succeed. Sometimes they do not believe that, but with your encouragement and faith in them they could learn to believe in themselves. By believing in themselves the sky is the limit!

Provide them with opportunities to explore their talents and boost their self-esteem such as hosting field trips to explore nature, visiting museums, watching and/ or joining an acting workshop or plays.
