THE ORIGINS PROGRAM

The Origins Program offers a robust collection of teaching and learning resources to support students, educators, schools, and districts. The Developmental Designs approach supports high academic achievement for adolescents by integrating a social-emotional approach with engaging academic instruction. They offer workshops for teachers and consulting services for schools and districts. Developmental Designs structures are designed to meet adolescents' needs for autonomy, competence, relationship, and fun. Students feel connected, heard, empowered, and safe, and academic engagement increases.
