Madison Metropolitan School District’s Post

Summer camps for Madison Metropolitan School District scholars are in full bloom! Last week, girls from BGM concluded another summer of Melanated Mindfulness in the Park. This marks the fourth year this camp has been held, with over 50 youth participating! Each morning began with a mindfulness activity that encouraged the girls to become aware of their thoughts, feelings, and bodies as they engaged in various activities throughout the day. The camp was made possible by a generous grant from the Kataly Foundation, with support from research scientist, Matthew Hirshberg at Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin–Madison.
