YOUth Rising Team Application

YOUth Rising is a Buffalo Strong initiative focusing on the overall wellness of youth in our community. We define wellness as: Taking care of your whole self—your body, mind, and emotions—so you can feel good, handle challenges, and do your best in everyday life.  It includes things like staying active, eating well, getting enough sleep, managing stress, learning safe tech habits, building positive relationships, and making choices that help you stay healthy and balanced.

We are looking for active youth leaders entering grades 6-12 to help make this movement a community success! This youth group will be helping design, practice, and promote healthy habits while building leadership skills and influencing positive change for kids.

Let’s learn more about you and how you might be a great fit for this program!

If you have any questions you can always contact us at youthrising@buffalostrong.care.
