Welcome to the Greater Saint Louis Area Council

Learning for Life is a character education and career awareness program designed to support schools and community organizations.  The program helps youth develop social, life, and leadership skills and prepares them to make ethical decisions that will help them achieve their full potential.

Learning for Life:  School-Based

School-based programs are intended for teachers and guidance counselors to use as supplemental lesson plans for grades K-12.  Each curriculum book consists of age-appropriate, grade-specific lesson plans that coincide with Missouri Show-Me Standards and are easily integrated into core subjects.

Learning for Life:  Exploring

Exploring is a work-site based program designed to enhance career awareness and leadership.  Local community organizations, such as hospitals and police departments, organize an Exploring Post by matching their resources to the interests of youth.  Youth then attend meetings, elect officers, and participate in interactive, career-based activities.
