S6: E3 Goal Setting and Support with Dr. Deanna Sinex at Youth Enrichment Services and the City of Pittsburgh Youth Civic Leadership Academy


Listen Later

Goal setting can be challenging at any age. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Deanna Sinex about how Youth Enrichment Services (YES) and other supporting partners work with the City of Pittsburgh to implement the Youth Civic Leadership Academy (YCLA) and help youth explore career fields, learn valuable skills, and gain access to unique opportunities. Their holistic approach to mentoring is clear in how they support youth in setting goals that are relevant to their own definitions of success and carefully consider the young person’s values, interests, and experiences. Listen in on the conversation to hear all about it!

Chapter 10: Goal Setting and Support by Ed Bowers of Clemson University discusses how intentionally supporting a mentee through the process of setting and pursuing goals is one important way a mentee can guide them towards discovering new passions and a strong sense of purpose.
