Program areas at Wellness for Growth Foundation
Education Programs: Two-month-long programs grounded on our practical and comprehensive Educational Platform taught at low-income bilingual schools. Throughout our programs, participants learn how to practice healthy and balanced lifestyles with their families, develop the necessary skills for personal and economic growth, participate in income-generating activities, and get basic education and support to jump-start their entrepreneurial endeavors. The classes are: English, personal finances, computer and mobile skills, entrepreneurship and job seeking preparation, nutrition, practical recipes, & chronic disease prevention, self-esteem, resilience & leadership and artistic expression.
Online Talks: Series of 1-hour-long online talks, live and on demand, open to the community. The talks are based on our four key aspects of wellness: emotional, physical, occupational, and financial. These sessions are set for each spring semester, running over two months with up to four talks of each of our wellness pillars.
Community Workshops: Customizable onsite workshops covering integral wellness and skills for growth topics, taught at schools, community centers, and/or in partnership with other organizations.
