“What’s your ‘secret’ to teen engagement?” 

We have always brought self-expression workshops to teens in partnership with schools and organizations, and recently we’ve been offering trainings for staff of youth-development organizations as well. 

Now, we can do even more by sharing interactive, “VOXy” learning activities for use wherever teens are meeting and learning with free, teacher-created Lesson Guides. 

Each VOX ATL Lesson Guide* is full of hands-on activities that use teens’ published content for exploring critical issues and developing skills aligned with Georgia’s Department of Education Standards of Excellence and Afterschool & Youth Development Quality Standards. 

Our Guide was co-created by educators from GSU’s College of Education & Human Development MACIE program, using VOX ATL’s highly interactive program model and commitment to authentic youth voice. 

Thank you for being our partner as Guides on the Side with teens!
