24.01.2022 FOCUS! Our programs encourage in young people the ability to centre their attention on a task despite distractions or other difficulties in their pursuits towards their potential. #focus #focusonyourgoals #people #leadership #positivethinking #engagement #postivemindset #HelmsmanResilience #perseverence #challenges #motivation #potential #striveforexcellence #striv

24.01.2022 In psychology, resilience is the capacity to bounce back from adversity, conflict, and failure or even positive events, progress, and increased responsibility. For our team, resilience is three things: welcome challenges, bounce back and be courageous. Watch Kim's CEO video blog here to learn more about resilience. #resilience #psychology #bounceback #progress #welcomechallenges #courageous #blog #ceocoach #ceomindset #teammindshare

23.01.2022 One of our coaches received this email from a student after participating in our program.

17.01.2022 As we run more of our new workshops we love receiving more feedback from students sharing what they enjoyed and gained from our program.

16.01.2022 We recently ran a pilot full-day experiential learning session with 28 Year 9 students at Birrong Girls High School. The students' evaluations showed that 70-75% of the group felt that their hope, resilience, self-regulation and wellbeing had been positively impacted as a result of their participation. We're thrilled to see these positive results as we work hard to refine this program ready for 2021!

13.01.2022 Our research results are out! The Helmsman Project programs have positive effects on young people's hope (agency & pathways thinking), positive global self-beliefs, open thinking, #wellbeing, social effectiveness, aspects of self-regulation, certain life effectiveness skills, and reduction in negative behaviours and beliefs associated with motivation and engagement. Read our impact report, the result of our five-year longitudinal randomised controlled trial research program f...unded by the Australian Research Council in partnership with Australian Catholic University (ACU): https://bit.ly/2WBL1ka We would love to hear from the #education sector, #schools, #teachers, #principals, #communities, #government and #philanthropists who would like to #partner and, #together, reach more #youngpeople who will need our support more than ever before. #makingadifference #coaching #outdooradventureeducation

11.01.2022 Releasing our brand new model of change. This model is backed up by our Australian Research Council-funded longitudinal randomised controlled trial conducted in partnership with the Institute for Positive Psychology and Education, Australian Catholic University (ACU). Enabling #youngpeople to envision a positive future and set and pursue goals for themselves is only one of the many outcomes of our evidence-based programs. Integrating a series of structured developmental #coac...hing sessions, #outdooradventure experiences and #communityprojects, our programs foster young people’s personal and social development by cultivating a range of qualities and skills including #selfconfidence, #resilience and #socialeffectiveness. Creating a world where young people realise their #potential. #personaldevelopment #wellbeing #coaching #positivepsychology #outdooradventure #experientiallearning #evidencebase

11.01.2022 Another quote captured by a student participating in our workshops. One of our values is community mindedness which includes the ability to consider and work with others. #inspiration #learning #Growing #workshop #teamwork #Team #together #Helmsman #helmsmancommunity

06.01.2022 We often hear from our participants how much they enjoy getting to know other students which they might not have done if it wasn't for going through The Helmsman Project together. #friendship #connections #communicationskills #broadenyourhorizons #journey #adventure #thehelmsmanproject

If you feel lucky to have had the right support when growing up, join us in making a difference to those who don't have the same luck. Click on the link and donate today. A heartfelt thank you.

05.01.2022 We are very excited to welcome Steadfast Foundation as funding partner of The Helmsman Project. Steadfast Foundation seeks to support charities helping people overcome adversity. One of their core principles is to help charities that focus on prevention - addressing the cause of a problem rather than treating the symptoms.

01.01.2022 The Helmsman Project acknowledges and celebrates NAIDOC Week 2020, which invites all Australians to embrace the true history of this country with the 2020 theme, Always Was, Always Will Be. This recognises and celebrates that First Nations people have occupied and cared for this continent for over 65,000 years. We’ve been inspired over the years by many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people taking part in The Helmsman Project. Their unique perspectives have enriched our programs. #naidocweek2020 #naidoc #truehistory #aboriginalculture #torresstraitislander #youngpeople #programs #australian
