To be On Point, teens must be prepped and ready to make smart decisions about life!  We equip them to be so through the following multi-faceted and holistic programs:

Think On Point (our comprehensive abstinence-centered program) -- Teens need the facts to be On Point. CAP is a five- to six-hour medically accurate and relevant curriculum designed to increase critical thinking skills and decrease sexual activity and linked risk behaviors.  On Point educators incorporate fundamental life skills to address pressing issues such as puberty, standard-setting, peer and media influences, decision-making, healthy relationships, STDs, and pregnancy.

Life On Point (our small-group leadership development program) -- Teens need support and concrete life-skills to be On Point. Life On Point is a 32-week "life education" course designed to reach teens on a personal level to give the support, accountability and skills students need to achieve a life of excellence!  Life On Point is tailored to meet the needs of the small group; builds assets in kids; and addresses academics, leadership, life skills, and avoidance of risk behaviors.

Teen Advisory Board -- Teens need a voice to be On Point.  The Teen Board is a diverse group of high school students living out the On Point message through leadership and service to others!  Participants pledge to inspire and connect with teens, and to support them in making healthy choices and pursuing their dreams.  During the year, the teen board meets monthly to discuss upcoming events, give input on new On Point programs, serve the community, support each other and have fun.

Book Clubs -- Teens need the vision of constant learning to be On Point.  A strong commitment to learning coupled with the endless opportunities given through books help to give kids vision.  Based on documented community need and requests from partnering schools, On Point implemented a pilot literacy and book club program to help students improve their literary proficiency while simultaneously developing ongoing relationships and providing leadership and life skills for a successful future.  Currently this program has been implemented as part of Life On Point Leadership groups.
