Promoting well-being and personal health, the programs under our Health & Well-being area are designed to help kids realize the goal of keeping themselves safe and healthy.

Team M3 - beyond the finish line
Team M3 unites adult mentors with at-risk high school students to successfully complete the LaSalle Bank Chicago Marathon. Together, student and mentor will develop relationships that last well beyond the finish line. Team M3 provides our mentors and students with the support and encouragement that they need to reach their goal. Our mission is to challenge students to experience the benefits of discipline, character development, and improved health by providing them with adult mentoring and the best experience to realize their full potential

WillPower
WillPower engages students in positive modeling behavior through peer theatre, coupled with sexual education and parental involvement. We present a series of interactive improvisational-mini plays whereby negative sexual behavior is demonstrated and positive behavior is then modeled by program participants. This is supported with factual information and discussion that is reinforced through our after-school activities.

The following three program components were specially designed to meet the pressing needs of Pittsburgh's urban youth.
