What is Act and Adapt?

Act and Adapt is a group-based, video-guided program that teaches youth how to cope with feelings of stress. Students will learn strategies to improve their mood and gain control by:

 

  • Solving problems that they have control over. 

  • Adapting to problems they do not have control over. 

 

Students meet for about an hour, once a week for about 10 weeks at their school.

Parent Testimonials:

“Like I said, every time she goes to group she comes different. She's a different little girl. She's happier, she's smiling, she's giggling, she's joking around, she's eating fine.”

Student Testimonials:

"What I like about the group is that you work as a team and that every time we have a problem, the other kids they help us out, like they give us advice, like what to do."
