Grounded in evidence-based curricula and Positive Community Norming, the initiative helps students recognize their influence and use it to shape healthier, safer behaviors.
Through leadership development, peer engagement, and real-world application, Be the Change supports youth in addressing reckless and distracted driving as a shared responsibility. Participants learn how to speak up, organize meaningful activities, and model behaviors that protect themselves and others who share the roadway. The result is student-led action that builds momentum, strengthens community connections, and creates lasting change beyond a single event or campaign.
Every community brings its own strengths, needs, and challenges. Be The Change is designed to adapt, giving students opportunities to connect, collaborate, and lead through interactive activities, peer discussion, creative projects, and student-led initiatives. Watch the video to see Be The Change Summits in action and how young people are turning ideas into impact.
