Mission Statement
HealthCorps is working to eliminate health inequity and improve lives by educating and empowering teens - encouraging them to become change-agents within their families, schools, and neighborhoods.
About This Cause
Founded in 2003, HealthCorps provides health and wellness curriculum and programming to high-need schools across the nation. That curriculum is delivered by near peer mentors (college students or recent college graduates) who also lead out-of-school and after-school wellness activities for students. Those activities range from cooking clubs and fitness challenges to special programs for teens on mental resilience. HealthCorps’ award-winning digital resources have been utilized over 2 million times by students, parents, and teachers. Believing that limited access to health education can lead to a lifetime of social, emotional, and physical challenges, HealthCorps strives to strengthen teens with innovative approaches to health and wellness, providing today’s youth with the tools to become more physically and mentally resilient through educational programming, leadership experience and service learning. HealthCorps’ programming is operating in schools and organizations in AZ, CA, DE, TX, OH, OK, PA and NY. Teens Make Health Happen is HealthCorps’ latest program designed to inspire youth change makers to develop healthier communities.
