“Just an old sweet song, keeps Georgia on my mind…”

You could almost hear the music of Ray Charles, and Georgia’s state song, at the Aspire training in Macon at the Georgia Music Hall of Fame on January 9. The room was filled with more than 100 educators, abstinence workers, and health professionals for the day-long training by Scott Phelps, author of Aspire abstinence curriculum.

What did the Georgians think of Aspire?

1. “The training most definitely met my expectations. I now have enough knowledge and tools to set up the program and succeed.” Sandra Walker
2. “Aspire effectively helps the kids think and reason out issues, pressures and reality of choices. It puts the ball in their court and shows them the choice is theirs! Speaker (Scott Phelps) was phenomenal! Very engaging!” Ellie Grimes
3. “I liked the sequential way the workbook makes the student think about their life choices, and the effective way Scott Phelps presents the message.” Monica Walters
4. “Scott Phelps is extremely knowledgeable of the subject and gave several hands-on activities to use with students.” Tyshiba Maxie

Danielle Ruedt, Title V Director for Georgia, said, “Aspire is an easy to follow program. This is something an organization can implement without a lot of money. I would like grantees to consider this curriculum.”
