I share the credo I hope youth will adopt with our assistance and our reflection back to them about their best capabilities and emotions.

  1. I am not flawed. I am a unique individual and my life is important.
  2. I choose not to give up on myself.
  3. I will not change who I am just to fit in a group.
  4. I am a good and pleasing person.
  5. I choose to trust myself and learn ways to keep myself safe.
  6. I choose to ask for help when I need it.
  7. I am worthy of being appreciated for my personal characteristics.
  8. I choose to find a hobby, job, or career that matches my strengths and personal preferences.
  9. I choose to practice calmness.
  10. I choose to wait and help someone who to understand me.
  11. When I am feeling low, I choose to seek one positive action to help myself.
  12. I choose to accept myself for all of who I am, my capabilities, my challenges, and my unique characteristics.
  13. I choose to rely upon people who have my best interests.
  14. I seek to discover joy and pleasure in my career life.

I leave you with a few powerful quotes. I tried to convey with clarity how to assist youth for a career and personal life satisfaction.


The task of employment leadership in the workplace is to see strengths in people who struggle socially/emotionally with challenges but with S.A.F.E.T.Y. Works tools and strategies to bring out their capabilities, potential, and the real possibilities they never knew could be.

When parents asked what abilities and qualities are important to assure the best quality of life in adulthood, the answers:

  • building self-expression and self-esteem, 
  • instilling happiness, 
  • creating positive experiences, and 
  • emphasizing healthy relationships. 
  • increasing self-awareness and the ability to emotionally self-regulate.
