Program Curriculum

Smiling faces from our academy in Panama City

PAC Success Academies curriculum utilizes Redirecting Children's Behavior (RCB) which is an experiential approach to redirecting individual behavior that enables the participants to modify his/her inappropriate beliefs and to shift attitudes and perceptions regarding themselves, their parent(s)/caregiver(s), children, siblings, their peers and school.  Parent(s)/Caregivers(s) participation is critical to increase the knowledge of appropriate parenting/social skills.  Parent and adolescents will participate separately and interactively.  Behavioral management components will include but not be limited to:

• Self Concept
• Communication
• Decision Making
• Parent/Family Living Skills

The curriculum is so designed to help parent(s)/caregiver(s) raise self-motivated and responsible adolescents who are able to win another's cooperation, create and maintain close-interpersonal relationships and work successfully as a team.  Its further goal is to permit the participant to learn how to take responsibility for his/her own actions, being motivated from within and not by external circumstances.

Over a period of six weeks, certified instructors deliver the curriculum in two separate tracks (adolescent and parent/caregiver).  Each session is a minimum of 36 hours of classroom instruction delivered twice weekly for three hours per session. Each session enrolls at least 10 family units.  Site location such as adult education, vocation or technical schools, churches or community centers may be used.
