The Making Decisions programme teaches the skills for making satisfactory decisions, provides opportunities for young people to apply this decision-making process to real-life situations, and encourages them to take more control of their lives by taking responsibility for making considered and informed decisions.
Each day we make many decisions, some straightforward, even 'automatic', others difficult and requiring a lot of thought. Some are relatively unimportant; others can affect the rest of our lives.
