WHAT IS ADVANTAGED THINKING?
Advantaged Thinking as a theory sees and values people for their qualities and capabilities, instead of societal labels.
When it comes to working with young people who, for whatever reason, have become disenfranchised or disengaged, or working with people who don't fit the mould structured for them through perceived cultural expectations, Advantaged Thinking becomes a powerful approach that can literally turn lives around.
YouthWorX NT uses this model as the cornerstone for all that we do and all that we say. We do so, not only because we believe in the principles morally, but because we have witnessed the impact this way of thinking can have on reengaging young people and giving them the confidence and self-pride to be valuable community assets.
