As educators, you strive to equip your students with the tools they need to succeed—not just in the classroom, but in life. That’s why we created Heroes 2, a 12-week leadership program designed to help students utilize their strengths to make a real impact.
Building on the foundation of Heroes, Heroes 2 encourages students aged 12-16 to look beyond themselves and explore how they can lead in ways that align with their passions. Through an experiential learning process, students identify an issue close to their heart, develop a plan of action, and bring their vision to life through their Passion 2 Action (P2A) project.

“Heroes 2 in its revised form provides much more experiential learning for the students. It is much more interactive, where students have to do their own digging into issues and how they can make a difference, rather than just being told/taught it.”

One of the most heartening narratives from our Heroes 2 program came from a group of students who chose anxiety as their 'Passion to Action' project.
The group ended up raising funds to renovate the washrooms with calming colors, inspiring quotes, and better lighting.
This initiative is more than just a testament to the efficacy of the Heroes 2 Program. It's a clear indicator of how, when equipped with the right tools and guidance, our youth can become agents of change and empathy in their communities.

Shane Jones has been facilitating Heroes sessions with his students for over 20 years. Understanding the challenges that his students are facing, Shane works to help them identify the walls that are holding them back to address them and move forward.
“I think the most important thing for students to hear is that ‘they’re enough, they have what it takes’. They may not know what that looks like, but if we can help plant a seed in their head, they can do it!”
“This is, in my opinion, the most important course you will ever take.”
