Your at-risk adult students are not helpless. Their situation is not hopeless. Students will find they have new power and freedom the minute they exercise self-control and take responsibility for their attitudes and actions. Inmates who are preparing for reentry need to re-establish their feelings of responsibility and control. During their incarceration, it was easy for them to shift control to wardens, corrections officers, or others. As they return to their communities, it is imperative that they understand the importance of taking responsibility for their actions and control of their lives.

 

Taking Responsibility and Control shows students the advantages of taking control of their lives. It explains how they can gain from their efforts. At-risk adult students learn specific ways to change and are challenged to begin to take responsibility and control, regardless of their past or present situation. Because it is a significant problem for many students, there is a special section on gaining control of anger.
