JR. High & High School Education Program
Covers kidney health, A-Z, for students grades 7-12, complete with tips on healthy lifestyle practices. This program covers the warning signs of kidney disease, tools to prevent or delay the onset of kidney disease and information about other diseases linked to poor kidney health.
Corporate Presentations
Designed as Lunch & Learn or Brown Bag Sessions, this program is intended to present a wide range of kidney health information in a shorter period of time.
Spirit of Health
Presented in neighborhood churches, the program focuses on the importance of good kidney health and the relationship the kidneys have with the total health of an individual. The church has long been a cornerstone providing a window to the soul of the community. By educating the congregation, we hope to educate the surrounding neighborhood.
KATCH (Kidney Assessment Through Comprehensive Health) Screening
The goal of this program is to identify individuals at risk for developing kidney disease. “Katch” the disease in its early stages by offering “at-risk” individuals free follow-up testing. Direct those individuals to appropriate medical attention before the disease spirals out of control.
