The priority of academics in a college setting takes some student-athletes by surprise. Good time-management skills is all it takes to maintain that good balance. "This teaches our student-athletes what it means to be accountable, dependable & academically disciplined.
Another Chance was designed for youth with behavioral challenges and/or juvenile justice issues that caused them to be rejected in normal societal programs. Here, when they accept the A.C.T. CHALLENGE, they will be accepted with open arms but held to high standards, through tough love approaches and help them to respect themselves and others, all while gaining a fresh new perspective on life, getting an associates degree and getting positive goals instilled, to enable them have a better life.
We understand that participation alone in a sport is not the magic formula for turning around the lives of troubled youth, however, it certainly provides many benefits that can help teens who are struggling in school, facing problems at home, or even made a bad legal choice, feel more connected to their peers that have made better decisions. The lessons learned through teamwork and sportsmanship are ones that youth can take into their adult life, such as how to communicate & respect others, learning how to take a loss and how to work as a team. We offer our ACT Students strategies to successfully manage time and money, how to make positive choices, how to deal with health and anger management issues, respect training and improving communication skills are all offered as part of our ACT Program.
