Adults in Support of Youth

Celebrate Change, Uniqueness and Individual Gifts

Are you a parent, teacher, school or church community seeking to develop a Coming-of-Age program, enhance existing adolescent education, or strengthen your approach to teenagers? I would welcome the opportunity to support, nurture and help sustain your efforts.

NEW! The First in the Creating Ritual Series of Booklets

Here is a framework for developing rites of passage specifically for the transition from childhood to young adult. The experiences of the adults who work through this conversation result in the creation of a clear step-by-step ceremony. The knowledge learned through this conversation could be applied to any rite of passage for adults as well.
