“Think Again: (about) The Connection Between Education and True Independence.”
| July 25, 2008 |  View for printing |
Based on compelling findings presented by Andrew Sum, economist from the Center for Labor Market Studies, regarding the consequences of dropping out of school, regional leaders across the P21 Initiative requested “youth friendly” tools to help them address this critical issue and to do so by engaging youth in the process.

“Think Again: The Connection Between Education and True Independence” is a youth-driven, youth-directed public information piece that features young people offering their wisdom from personal experience on dropping out of school, the impact it has had on their lives, and the decisions they have made to pursue education as a pathway to a career and a better life.
