The WhyTry Program
WhyTry is a powerful toolkit for teachers and counselors to teach students the “Skills of Resilience.” WhyTry is also an approach to engage and motivate even those difficult-to-reach students.

The Transformational Leader Toolkit
This toolkit is a series of pre-built staff development workshops for school administrators and school leadership teams to build staff capacity for creating positive teacher-student relationships. This has the potential to directly address the lack of connectedness we are seeing in students, as well as the teacher burnout and staffing shortages we are seeing across our schools.

The Power of Visual Metaphors
One of the most unique things about WhyTry is how we use visual metaphors to teach these important principles to students in a way they can understand and remember. The powerful thing about using this visual approach is the way it takes abstract concepts and puts them into a context through the use of a metaphor that students can understand. It essentially creates a language for educators to communicate the relevance of these things.
