The program’s goals are to enable individuals to meet their potential, modify their behavior to lawful standards and to improve the quality of their lives by equipping them with critical life management skills necessary to contribute to society confidently and successfully. It is Mr. Brown’s contention that the self-esteem of an individual is raised only when they improve their lives and achieve them through self-determination.
