Welcome
True stories of change ... Lessons learned to share ...
This book has been a journey spanning years; starting as a project to re-publish Australian Don Bowaks wonderful book of the same name, it has grown into so much more. It contains true personal stories of men and women and their journey to adulthood as well as a manual on how to create 'Rites of Passage' for your family or community.
Included within the pages are Don Bowaks original book of the same title. We have included key aspects of several of our teachers and mentors work including; Joseph Campbell, Bill Plotkin, Dr Arne Rubinstein, Michael Jude, Bret Stephenson. Also included in the book are stories from men and women involved with the work of inspiring young people as well as directly involved with 'The Rites of Passage Foundation'.
The Rites of Passage Foundation is a Charitable Trust based in Golden Bay, New Zealand and is the centre point around which we have written this book. This trust puts on 'Rite of Passage' events for people of all ages, for Girls under the TIDES program and for boys under the TRACKS program.
