    Leadership Development

  • “Teen Empowerment has worked alongside Community Academy staff over the past year to co-design and implement structures to strengthen school climate, restorative practices, and student's voice. TE co-facilitates professional development sessions with staff, contributing to the improvement of our group and decision-making processes. As the principal of a small alternative high school in Boston, I wanted to bring in a consultant that brought expertise through a practitioner’s lens. With Teen Empowerment’s coaching, we successfully launched our very first student leadership group. We are also excited to work with TE to develop a comprehensive feedback and communication system for staff and faculty that will improve the efficacy of our work.”

  • “Teen Empowerment has been a crucial partner of the New England Aquarium’s ClimaTeens program. ClimaTeens helps youth develop skills and confidence for public speaking and fostering constructive dialogue about climate change and its impacts on ocean systems. Teen Empowerment has brought valuable insight and experience to the program planning table and into our youth meetings, and retreats. Thanks to TE, we’ve been able to stay accountable to the youth we serve, and the vision for our work, while growing the capacity of all who are involved in the program (youth and staff). Teen Empowerment’s, unique personalized approach and expertise on working with youth, have helped us to set a course for success we might not have achieved otherwise.”
