Selected CSC Materials

 

Revised, 2nd Edition!
CSC Director Ami Chen Mills-Naim's self-help book for teens, "The Spark Inside: A Special Book for Youth," is available again, with updated resources.

"This book is enlightening and encouraging and I recommend it highly to all young people." —Arun Gandhi, President of the M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence.

"The principles presented in this book are simple but remarkably profound. They speak to how teenagers can be happy, even when their circumstances are not. And they help explain the larger, sometimes confusing world to children in a gentle way that empowers youth to tap into their own light and make things better. A life-changing read. Enthusiastically and highly recommended!" —Richard Carlson, Ph.D., author of Don't Sweat the Small Stuff for Teens
