For the Better, Inc. is dedicated to combating the alarming rise of obesity. With 30 percent of teens and adolescents considered obese?and half of those being teens of color?our Better Health Program is crucial. We focus on nutrition and health education to address obesity and its related health issues. Our mission is to empower youth as health ambassadors and leaders within their families and communities. By partnering with local high schools, community centers, and various organizations like Ponce Bank and the Phit Foundation, we offer comprehensive support and opportunities for teens. Funded by the DOE, discretionary funds, grants, and community donors, we continuously expand our reach to make a lasting impact.
