This workbook is for use in Churches and is geared towards youth ages 12-19 and their parents who read through real life stories and questions contained in the 5 Steps Workbook together (with a facilitator). The workbook uses real life stories to help youth conceptualize what is meant by the school to prison pipeline, giving tips on how they can avoid the pipeline along the way. The workbook is a story of one family's journey through the 5 Steps as they try to avoid the traps which await them in an invisible pipeline and offers many thought provoking questions throughout. The characters are 15 year old Jaleesa, 16 year old Robert, their Mom Latonia and their Dad Robert Sr. The workbook also contains pre and post surveys for each step to help the facilatator monitor the changing mindsets of participants.
