Abstract

The aim of my capstone project is to offer solutions at both the institutional and individual levels to boost participation in extracurricular activities and overall health behaviors. Health behaviors adopted during late adolescence and early adulthood may continue later in life. Ultimately, the broader goal is to improve the holistic health and wellbeing of adolescents in the United States.
