1.Stimulating literacy: This goal involves encouraging young people to develop their reading and writing skills. It could include activities such as reading books, engaging in discussions about literature, and practicing writing.


2. Building confidence: This objective aims to boost self esteem and belief in one's abilities. Activities that can help achieve this goal may involve public speaking, group projects, and providing opportunities for students to showcase their talents or accomplishments.
