COA Youth Participate in Belonging/Fitting In Activity

On December 8th, COA Youth participated in discussions and activities centered around Belonging and Fitting In. The group discussed the following quotes taken from the book ‘Daring Greatly: How the Courage to be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Love, Love, Parent and Lead‘ by Brene Brown.

“Belonging is being somewhere where you want to be, and they want you. Fitting in is being somewhere you really want to be, but they don’t care one way or the other.”

“Belonging is being accepted for you. Fitting in is being accepted for being like everyone else.”

“I get to be me if I belong. I have to be like you to fit in.”
