The Program
Teen Institute students and their advisers come together for a week in the summer to learn about health, wellness, and each other.
Then they spend the year working to improve their schools and communities through a variety of student-led activities ranging from peer education on substance abuse prevention to peer support in overall physical and mental wellness.
