Become a Spark Champion!

Spark Champions are those people who help identify, support, and nurture a young person’s spark. According to our research, young people who know and develop their sparks with the support of Spark Champions tend to:

  • Have better school attendance
  • Are more likely to be socially competent
  • Are more likely to volunteer to help other people
  • Are more likely to care about the environment
  • Are more likely to have a sense of purpose
  • Are less likely to experience depression
  • Are less likely to engage in acts of violence

If you’ve read the research, downloaded a few useful pieces, and you’re ready to do more, these pages will help you make encouraging sparks a regular part of your school, community, or family life.
