This fall break, ICAN youth have been making unforgettable memories while taking a break from school. Our fall activities have been packed with excitement and opportunities for youth to unwind and enjoy themselves. There's been something for everyone, from lively youth parties and fun-filled spirit weeks to skating adventures and even visits from petting zoos. We can’t wait for even more fun to come! As our youth and teens head back to school, we wish them a wonderful start to their week and a term filled with success.📚🎒🍁 

We are proud to celebrate the ribbon-cutting ceremony at Galveston Elementary School, marking the completion of its exciting rebuild! As the first elementary school to welcome our ICAN site-based program expansion model, Galveston holds a special place in our story. This new chapter highlights the power of partnership and innovation in our community, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to see it come to life! https://lnkd.in/gbPWmW5G

We couldn’t achieve our mission without our valued supporters!!

We’re so grateful for the continued support and partnership of our friends at Kovach. Big thanks to Kovach for equipping our young gardeners with the tools they needed to dig into some hands-on fun this fall break! 🪴👩🌾
