Our Work
GENYOUth’s Programs are School-Centered, Student-Focused Solutions. Too many American youth are inactive, undernourished and unconnected. Students spend 180 days per year at school – yet schools are under-resourced. But GENYOUth is equipping, engaging, and empowering youth to make a difference!
Pillars of Purpose
As America’s largest in-school health and wellness program, GENYOUth’s work is focused on three key Pillars of Purpose in our commitment to creating healthier school communities and providing youth with the nourishment, inspiration and resources they need to build healthy, high-achieving futures.
