Help Shape Young Lives
A ready-to-teach 22-lesson resilience course built around the real-life story of The Runner. Through short author videos, guided discussion, online workbook activities and practical student tools, students explore choices, habits, influence, identity, discipline and direction — with everything prepared so teachers can focus on meaningful conversations, not lesson planning.
