Jaclyn’s Support Circle

Jaclyn works with her mom to prepare for her Support Circle meetings. A few days before, she calls the people to remind them. She helps prepare refreshments. When each person arrives she greets them at the door and helps them hang up their coat. When the meeting begins, the person leading it asks Jaclyn to share. She reads from her journal. She tells how she has been doing with the goals that she has set, and she mentions any problems and opportunities that have come up since their last meeting. She’s a good example of the way a young person can take ownership of her network.
