Health Education

We actively engage with local schools and organizations within the community to deliver a Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP), which incorporates curriculum from the Wise Guys Program. Our goal is to educate youth and young adults ages 10-19 on topics related to healthy relationships, personal growth, and well-being. We also provide support to help build self-confidence, motivation, and self-esteem. By fostering these skills, we aim to empower individuals to make informed and healthier decisions.
