Special Training

All Goals For Life athlete/mentors are trained to conduct a thirty-week intensive program. The executive director trains all athlete/mentors in strategies for instruction, student- learning and group participation as well as how to communicate with the unique personality of the at-risk student. Upon successful completion of training, the athlete/mentor meets weekly with his students to implement the curriculum and achieve the objectives of the Goals For Life program.
            All Goals For Life lesson plans are student-centered, interactive and personalized by the professional athlete/mentor (incorporating the NFL Game Plan and perspective) and adapted to meet the needs of this particular student group.
