Think About

Some reflection questions here:

• Consider some of your own behaviours… Can you use the “Person in Society” model to identify any insights into your own behaviours

• Think of a child or young person that you know… Can you use the “Person in Society” model to identify any insights into their behaviours

• Do you think you could use the “Person in Society” model in your work as a Youth Worker or SU Qld Chaplain? How?
