The Roadtrip Nation Movement empowers individuals to define their own roads in life through resources such as:
- Annual television series aired on PBS stations
- Live campus events
- Nationally publicized books
- Multimedia online content
- Innovative educational curriculum
Define Your Own Road In Life
Roadtrip Nation’s new extension into education, RoadtripNation.org, serves to help high school students gain access and exposure to life pathways that they may have otherwise not known existed, enabling them to draw connections between school and the real world, and motivating them to remain engaged in their futures and the educational process.
