Currently the We're Well program partners with Big Buddy's afterschool program Glen Oaks Middle and High School students. Each student is given journal and a program booklet with the programs activities, fact sheets, recipes and more. At the end of the 5 week program students also receive a t-shirt, water bottle, and other treats. Plans are for expanding the program to additional locations in 2022/2023.
