At this site you will have the opportunity to learn about the Passage Program, the Passage Student Development Model and something about traditional indigenous models of initiation as well as a modern initiation model. You will also learn about the author, Tom Balistrieri, who has spent the last ten years working with elders around the world and has researched, designed and implemented the Passage program and model. Elements of the Model and Program have been adopted by universities around the country. Ultimately this site is about young people and the positive impact they can have on the world. Indigenous elders of the world are frightened and strongly believe we must awaken our young people to the impending danger and awaken them to their responsibilities as wise guardians of the planet.
Passage is just one means of awakening the young and the old.
Hopefully you will find this site and Passage to be of benefit to you and your organization.
