Humans make decisions every day. As individuals, voters, and citizens of the world, the choices we make have the power to shape the world around us. The problem is, we don't make choices very well. SSS attempts to address this. Our curriculum uses the tools developed by science to help people better understand the world around them and make better decisions together in an increasingly uncertain world.

The topics in our curriculum draw from six concept areas listed below.
