Safety, Health, Opportunity and Practice (SHOP)
SHOP was created to serve as a community resource aiming to improve academic outcomes, increase access to public health and social services, reduce disparities, increase communication and build resilience, and reduce negative encounters with law enforcement in distressed neighborhoods.
Youth learn communication skills, anger management techniques, health and nutrition, and stress reduction/coping mechanisms.
SHOP is an 6-week program featuring three tracks for participants; Co-Ed, Ladies First, Tutoring and Mentoring, and SHOP FIT.
Our current and on-going programs are below. Please contact shop@healthedcouncil.org to request the site meeting dates and times.
- Valley High – Open only to Valley High Health Tech students
- Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency (SHRA); 2 affordable housing locations – Open to the public
