Additional information

Most teens are responsible for homework and getting good grades. They likely have chores, such as dishes or lawn care, that an adult expects them to take care of on a daily or weekly basis. Perhaps they have a younger sibling who depends on them for rides to school or afterschool care. These are all responsibilities related to personal and familial obligations, but what about a responsibility to the community and the world itself? Learning social responsibility means understanding the ways you are connected with others. Teens become aware of social responsibility by seeing it take place in the real world. The information in this volume will help readers understand the importance of key concepts, such as service learning, volunteering, and self-efficacy.
