THE COMPASS PROGRAM

The “Compass” program is an action-based learning experience designed to help students build key values for successful social interactions while focusing on healthy character development, self-image, and positive mental health. Over the course of the program, students will progress through five stages of group formation, gaining real-world experiences in a controlled, supportive environment. Participants will develop self-esteem, improve communication skills, and enhance self-awareness, teamwork, collaboration, and problem-solving abilities. The program also promotes trust-building, self-control, acceptance of self and others, empathy, and forgiveness.
