The objective of the program is to help you clarify your intentions for your tech use, then give you a powerful toolkit to stick to them for the long term.
Peers hold you accountable
All participants are placed in an accountability group of 4-6 like-minded peers based on age and objectives. Throughout the program, groups engage in discussions, share goals, and provide updates on their progress.
