I will be representing Project for Teens as a Champion Runner in the Mankato Marathon on October 20-21, 2018.

Project for Teens is a peer education program involving Mankato area high school students dedicated to preventing teen pregnancy and promoting the well-being of their younger peers.

Project for Teens peer leaders serve as dynamic and positive role models to:

 * Promote healthy and responsible decision-making

 * Provide accurate information about risks associated with sexual and other behaviors (alcohol and drug use, cyber-activity and bullying)

 * Address the reality of peer pressure at the middle school levels

 * Teach effective communication skills

“This program allows me to work with some amazing students and help them grow as leaders. They take control and show leadership skills.” - Shea
