My Project

High school adolescents often find themselves grappling with hunger after a long day of classes. This issue not only affects their physical health but also hinders crucial brain development during this critical stage of adolescence. This project implements a snack programs to provide students with nutritious alternatives, fostering both physical and mental well-being.

Beyond the nutritional aspect, communal eating and "hanging out" fosters a sense of belonging and community among high school adolescents.

Shared snack times provide an opportunity for students to connect, share experiences, and build relationships. By encouraging students to eat together, schools can create a supportive environment that enhances not only their physical health but also their social and emotional well-being.
