Although this is a national initiative, we have plans to first transform New York City into the health metropolis of America. To launch this venture, we’ve created the official HealthJox Curriculum called: “Pursuing Purpose Program”. This is not your ordinary health & sports program. Youth will be taught the value of family, community, love, friendship, health & sports. Mental health illness is a huge epidemic in our Community. With our trained staff, Youth will learn about mental health solutions, anti-bullying/non-violence tips, basic skills of parenting and help Youth struggling with everyday life’s challenges. Youth will access our literacy programs that will teach economics, crypto-currency, self-esteem, character development and technical skills that will increase the quality of people in our neighborhoods. They will also learn about conventional and holistic techniques through our pediatricians, sport coaches, clinical social workers and other holistic modalities.
