DENVER, May 15, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Huddle Up, the leader in supporting children's
growth, development, and mental health, is excited to announce a
partnership with the Bill of Rights Institute's MyImpact Challenge,
a program that promotes civic engagement and community building.
This partnership kicks off during May Mental Health Month, aligning
with both organizations' commitment to supporting communities and
fostering the wellbeing of kids and teens.
The partnership aims to leverage Huddle Up's expertise in
team-based care and community empowerment alongside the Bill of
Rights Institute's extensive network of educators. By joining
together, the organizations seek to empower educators, providers,
families, and communities to create a meaningful impact on
children's growth and development. The Bill of Rights Institute, a
nonprofit organization committed to ensuring all students have
access to a quality civic education, provides educators with free
resources to teach students about civics, history, and their rights
and responsibilities as citizens. With a network of over 76,000
educators, who teach more than 7.6 million students per year, the
Institute plays a vital role in supporting young people and
promoting community engagement.
"We are excited to partner with the Bill of Rights Institute to
unite communities in nurturing the growth, development and mental
health of our kids and teens," said Dr. Omar Dawood, CEO and Board Member at Huddle Up.
"The MyImpact Challenge is a wonderful opportunity to combine our
resources to recognize kids and teens as they contribute to their
communities."
As part of the partnership, Huddle Up will sponsor the Bill of
Rights Institute's MyImpact Challenge, a contest in which students
nationwide develop community service and civic engagement projects,
and share how those projects impact their communities and promote
constitutional principles like equality, liberty, and justice.
Throughout May Mental Health Month, Huddle Up will showcase
projects that address mental health and belonging in the community.
Moreover, Huddle Up will recognize and amplify the Bill of Rights
Institute's community impact through sponsoring MyImpact Challenge
awards, and working directly with students to help them bring their
ideas and projects to their school boards. Huddle Up will also
support the Bill of Rights Institute's 76,000 educators with lesson
plans focused on mental health, inclusion, and belonging in their
classrooms.
"We are thrilled to collaborate with Huddle Up to support
students and community engagement," said David J. Bobb, Ph.D., president and CEO of the
Bill of Rights Institute. "Through MyImpact Challenge, we aim to
help students develop civic engagement skills that create a lasting
impact on their growth, development, well-being, and ability to
engage productively in their communities. We are excited by the
energy, commitment, and expertise Huddle Up will bring to the
program."
