Our current focus is providing Mental Health Support and Resources during Social Distancing for our Youth.
We plan to achieve this goal by providing our youth with online mentorship.
*Adult to youth Mentorship
*We have created an online Podcast held weekly/biweekly, where we choose topics suggested by our youth and have an expert that is well versed on the topic at hand, lead the podcast. Here we allow the youth to engage and feel empowered by providing resources/tools to overcome any challenges they may be facing concerning the topic at hand. In addition to providing the leader who is there to LISTEN, and allow them to vent and ACKNOWLEDGE their views and assist with guidance.
*Trade School/ Vocational/ College/Military Scholarship/Grant Preparation, which includes online resources and bi-weekly group guidance.
*Pressures on Student Athletes & Recruitment: This virtual course includes a questionnaire that allows us to better understand each individual athletes specific challenges. Once we have recognized your challenges we can then provide tools necessary to better tackle and understand the recruitment process, for both parents and athlete. (i.e. Educating on the different Divisions and how much scholarship/financial aid is allowed at each level. Understanding college visits, and know as much information on each school for example basketball, what type of system do they play in? What position is the coach trying to have you play? So on and so forth. Ensuring to emphasize that the STUDENT has to attend the school, meaning they have to deal with the work load and be able to balance academics & practices and games etc. NONONE else. (We do provide individual in person consultations and support.)
*“Stronger Together” is our signature event, that consists of 3 Segments.
Keynote Speaker- An advocate for Mental Health Support
Open Q&A- Where we allow both parents and students ask questions freely and provide solutions to their specific challenges.
Resource Fair-We create the environment of a resource fair at our event, where local resources are present to provide information on the products and services that they provide.
This event is sport based & is available currently to any high school sport program in Broward County. (i.e. Football we would host a 7 on 7 charity game and include the above mentioned components)
*Virtual Programs & Trainings that we are currently working to add are:
-”The Science of Well-being”: A virtual program where you will engage in a series of challenges designed to increase your own happiness & build more productive habits. This happiness course is designed to promote skills of Gratitude, Meditation, and of course HAPPINESS.
-”Show Me the Money Management”: A virtual training that will include financial literacy. We will provide tools to assist with budgeting, credit, and saving strategies.
-”Self Love”- A virtual program where our goal is to motivate healthy habits. We have two segments, Part 1 Where we provide Healthy Eating Education. (Nutrition classes that address specific health conditions, Individual & Group nutrition counseling, cooking classes.) Part 2 includes Physical Health Education. Here we provide Education on the Benefits of Physical Activity. The strong connection between your mental & physical health, & the direct impact of your physical health and the quality of your life.
Once the Covid-19 Social Distancing has been lifted we will continue with scheduling Monthly Events to support our youth.
