Program Requirements
The program is designed to be flexible and suit the needs of teachers, school counselors, and administrators. Each presentation is a stand-alone piece that can be given in one class period. Or, you can schedule a series of related presentations back-to-back or over a series of days or weeks.
There are more than 30 presentations divided into four series that group related themes (visit the Presentations section to find out more about each topic):
- Health & Social Well-being: Try these in Current Events, Life Skills, Health, and Speech classes.
- Life Betterment & Career Preparation: Integrate these with your English and Business curricula.
- Discovery: Great for History, Civics, and Geography classes.
- Disaster Preparedness: A natural for Science classes.
Each YOU CAN School Program presentation is approximately 45 minutes long and is personalized to be interesting and relevant to your students. The tone is informal—these aren't lectures, they're conversations. Our trained presenters are real, friendly people who can connect with today's young adults. They even bring their own audio-visual equipment and support materials.
Request the program and a local Army National Guard representative will contact you to schedule a presentation for your class. He or she can also give a demonstration of the program for your faculty.
