    Activities

    RAK4Kids was developed by the Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Foundation to be used in out-of-school programming. Download the Activity Guide

    RAK’s goal is to inspire and empower kids to act kindly and share kindness with others. Program Overview RAK4Kids fosters positive youth development and engages the minds, hearts and bodies of kids of all ages through constructive activities.

    The focus of the program is on having fun and building relationships in a safe, supportive environment where kids will be inspired to be kind and make a difference in their own communities. Six primary kindness concepts will serve as a theme throughout the RAK4KIDS program: Caring, Compassion, Respect, Responsibility, Helpfulness and Self-Care.

    Career Development System

    The Wyoming Career Development System Report identifies six components of a comprehensive career development system and makes recommendations for advancing each component in Wyoming. A cross-sector, continuum approach (one that supports those who serve a broad range of ages) is the most cost-effective way to provide quality programming for children and youth. With this in mind, these recommendations build on current systems and initiatives established in the early childhood field.
