Adolescence is a time of moving from nearly-blind acceptance of the values of one’s family and culture, to the exploration of the values that will guide one’s transition into adulthood and beyond. Without the opportunity to explore and consider, it can be for some youth, a time of merely substituting the family’s values for the perceived values of the peer group and/or those being espoused on various social media platforms. This module provides an overview of a specific methodology for supporting youth to explore values in a more neutral environment and look more deeply into their relationship with them.

For those who work with youth (11 to 24 years old) online or in-person:

Therapists, Counselors, Educators, Teachers, Coaches, Substance use Counselors and parents. It is especially relevant to those working with groups.

Goal:

Identify the methodology of introducing adolescents to the idea of exploring their personal values and how to develop and facilitate the activity called the Circle of Values.

Objectives:

• Facilitate an activity to elicit adolescent definitions of the concept of “values;” and list at least 5 examples of values that might be important for adolescents to explore;

• Describe the relationship of The Circle of Values to the sociometric activity The Social/Cultural Atom and facilitate the process for creating a Circle of Values on paper and in action.
