ICAP

Our vision is to bring at-risk boys & girls ages 7-14, who live in low-income communities the awareness of health education, importance of exercise, good nutritional choices, self-esteem, self-confidence, coping & social skills, and the ability to adjust to their environment. We want our youth to thrive, value diversity, overcome adversity, help others, succeed in school, demonstrate leadership, and participate in their own healthy lifestyles and futures. Using best practices and evidenced-base techniques our youth thrive in their quest for healthier and safer lifestyles by experiencing positive youth experiences.

Inner City Athletic Program is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization that has been established since 2008. We provide free athletic instruction, health and nutritional educational classes and positive youth development in schools, various recreational locations, and special events. Pre & post-surveys are conducted to track increased knowledge of health education. High school students who volunteer earn community service credits for their school's requirements.
