These principles have a lot of staying power. The values you learn as a Scout are like a compass. They can help you find your way through difficult and sometimes unchartered terrain.  The principles of Scouting give you a sense of what’s important. I feel I owe the Boy Scouts a great deal, both personally and professionally.” – Bill Bradley

    Emily, Hailey and Queenie: Summer Family Day - Oakmont of San Jose 2025 Silver Award Project Photo Summary - Team 1 Take Action Project (TAP) Photos Our Take Action Project addressed the issue of social isolation and loneliness among older adults, particularly in assisted-living homes. Social isolation and loneliness are serious problems that may affect older adults across the United States. In the United States, about a quarter of adults aged sixty-five and older are socially isolated and about 43 percent of adults aged sixty and older report experiencing loneliness (National Academies Press [US], 2020).

In school, we’ve observed that our peers struggle to cope with stress and anxiety because of pressure from academics, social media, personal relationships, etc. Compounding the issue, students are uncomfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings and reaching out for help from adults. This causes them to keep their emotions bottled up without an outlet to relieve their stress. Ultimately, their pent-up anxiety results in a negative impact on their outlook and confidence level. Our target audience was our peer group, boys and girls in our North San Jose community, who are between 10 to 16 years of age. We felt more comfortable working with this age group as we can relate better to them. We also are...
