Description

Do You Have What It Takes? is a new resource for helping teens succeed after foster care. This survival manual for teens, mentors, foster parents, staff, and CASAs is written by teens who have been there. The teen writers show how they have managed the emotional and practical skills they need to live on their own after foster care. Do You Have What It Takes? includes lessons and worksheets that teens can do on their own or in workshops, plus nine lessons for group activities. Teens will learn emotional skills like how to form a support network, how to set goals, how to work with difficult people, and how to manage emotions like anger and loneliness. They will also learn practical skills like money management, finding a job, finding an apartment and keeping it clean, and taking care of their health. - from Amzon
