Today's teens experience more stress than any generation before them. When teens don't know how to manage their stress, they're more likely to have problems with academic failure, serious health issues, eating disorders, smoking, drinking, drugs, or risky sex.
The Chill™ series uses lessons, small-group projects, and teen-hosted documentaries to guide youth in grades 7–12 towards healthy stress management habits for life. With our teens-talking-to-teens approach, your students will get the facts about what stress is, identify what causes it, and learn healthy techniques to help manage it.
