11th Annual Reach Out to Youth Program Set for February 2025
The 11th Annual Reach Out to Youth event is scheduled to take place on February 22, 2025, at the Secchia Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan. This year, the program will run from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM and is tailored for students aged 7 to 11 who express an interest in careers within the medical arts and sciences.
The Reach Out to Youth initiative aims to ignite enthusiasm in young learners by providing them with hands-on, interactive small group sessions. Participants will engage in a variety of lessons and activities designed to promote the significance of healthy living and the impact of science on well-being. The workshops are crafted to inspire participants not only to consider futures in medical-related fields but also to adopt wholesome lifestyles that contribute to their overall health.
This year’s theme, “Flex Your Superpower,” encourages young attendees to recognize and utilize their unique abilities and talents. This theme highlights the potential each child holds to influence their own health and contribute positively to their community, prompting discussions around personal empowerment and responsibility.
In addition to the children’s program, a dedicated session for parents will be provided, allowing them to engage with content relevant to their children’s interests in health and medicine. This dual approach enhances the experience, fostering a community of informed families equipped to support their youth in pursuing educational and career aspirations in the sciences.
Participation in the Reach Out to Youth program is free of charge, ensuring accessibility for all interested families. For those looking to participate, registration is available through the provided link.
