Do you know a high school student with sickle cell disease looking for a community? At Next Step’s STRIVE program, we’ve created just that. In this after school program, students will meet peers who face the same challenges caused by the disease. They`ll play games, take part in group projects, like writing a comic book, but most importantly, they’ll do it together.
STRIVE offers programs in Boston, New York City, and Washington D.C. visit the link in our bio to learn more about this amazing program for high school students with sickle cell disease. Enrollment is ongoing through April.
