The YOU CAN School Program is an award-winning free public service offered by the Army National Guard. Delivered in classroom settings by certified presenters, our 30 dynamic presentations make effective use of video, music, and graphics, and introduce students to necessary life skills in order to let them know that they can have successful futures and accomplish great things.

The highly motivational presentations will help students believe that they can shape their futures—and make them want to do so. Our goal is neither to tell students "everything there is to know" about a topic nor to give them a "broad-brush" understanding of the subject. Rather, our goal is to give them an essential skill or a shift in their thinking, which helps them make wise decisions—right now and throughout their lives.

The Army National Guard is excited about these presentations and what they have to offer students, schools, and the community. A demonstration of the materials and the audio/visual complements will show you why the Guard has put so much time and effort into this program and why it's something we think will be a benefit to all. Contact your local Guard representative for a demonstration.

The 30 presentations are grouped thematically, using a color-coded system that combines similar topic areas:

Health & Social Well-Being presentations provide clear explanations and down-to-earth suggestions for staying safe and healthy, and learning how to get along with others.
The Life Betterment category includes presentations that give students practical tips and suggestions for developing life skills they can use now and that they will need after graduation.
Discovery presentations help students understand the American identity, and figure out how Americans relate to the rest of the world.
The Disaster Preparedness series shows students what they can do to stay safe when disasters occur.
