“When first introduced to the materials, I found them breathtaking and unlike anything I had seen. Interactive and thought-provoking, The Brave Series fosters meaningful conversations and personal reflection, creating an environment where teens can share and connect. Its beautifully designed presentation captures the attention of even the most discerning teenagers, making it as visually engaging as it is impactful.”
Phyllis Unebasami, Retired Deputy Superintendent, Hawaii State Department of Education
Every day, teens scroll on phones, encountering challenging content, relational issues, and assaults on their underlying value. This makes them vulnerable to harmful influences.
The Brave Series equips educators, youth leaders, and parents to tackle tough topics with teens in a way that’s engaging, relatable, and thought-provoking.
Through beautifully designed articles, interactive activities, and meaningful reflection questions, it sparks life-changing conversations that boost self-worth, foster emotional healing, inspire strong values, and empower young people with the wisdom to stand against exploitation.
Listen to this short message from Michele Okimura as she shares how this resource will help teens everywhere thrive and be safe in the process.
“My passion is to see young people confident and courageous while embracing their immense value and purpose as they pursue their dreams for their future!”
