Spring 2025 Overview

The Wellness Effect

I founded The Wellness Effect with the goal of increasing health literacy and health advocacy skills in youth as they create their own community health campaigns.  

 

In November 2024, we were awarded a mini-grant of $750 by the University of

Maryland’s Do Good Institute. This grant is used to provide campaign materials

to participants.
