Educators, Parents, and Caring Adults Face Unprecedented Educational Challenges
How do we make a difference and help create brighter futures in our schools, at home, and in our youth development organizations? Our youth are bombarded with social pressures and negativity and often bullying that spreads to the masses – in minutes through social media. The increased numbers of broken families, poor nutritional choices, digital distractions, Tik-Tok, addicting video games, and more, all lead to unprecedented mental health challenges and many under-performing students who are not ready for college and/or career. Today’s educators need our help now, perhaps more than ever.
It’s bigger than we may first think…We all know that China, not Finland is now #1 in education. Americas’ global competitiveness in an ever-flat 
world is at risk. Why does America have millions of unprepared students who are not able to effectively communicate, collaborate, critically think, create, or problem solve to overcome obstacles in school, work, life, and even play?
The Albert Einstein quote surely applies here:
“We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.”
The Realizing Dreams Einstein inspired and infused interventions were created by an 8th grade student who won the school citizenship award, then in 1982 the Outstanding Student Award Scholarship in college for his heartfelt answer, “I like helping people” … when others said, “It will look good on my resume”. In 1992, he received the Alumni of the Year Award. In 2011, The National Parenting Center awarded their Seal of Approval for many of his active learning tools and discovery games that bridge the generational divide. And, recently in 2018 his Alma Mater awarded him the Community Service Award, which is presented to a graduate for extraordinary community service and for contributions that advance the improvement of society. 
Plus, his more than 37 years of experience as a corporate executive turned entrepreneur and experiential educator. It’s Jim Cantoni’s, Realizing Dreams founders’ lifetime vision to give back and advance human potential in education and health.
