STARS PROGRAM is a series of seven counselling workbooks that offers specific strategies in an easy-to-use format and invites students to be active in their own development. The exercises use a variety of interactive techniques such as word games checklists interviews narration and drawing. The workbooks may be used either as a pre-activity or follow-up to counselling sessions and are a ready-to-use resource for counsellors psychologists and social workers; teachers administrators and juvenile justice system workers; and parents. They can also help counsellors determine which issues need extra attention or select specific exercises for students.
