Legacy Summer Leadership Exp. / Verity Adaptive Youth Program

`

Ages: 8 to 17

Description

The Legacy Culture & Wellness Institute Summer Leadership Experience is a youth enrichment program designed to inspire growth, leadership, creativity, and cultural awareness. Youth ages 8–17 will participate in reading and math enrichment, African drumming and dance, sewing,

gardening, cooking, physical fitness, wellness activities, field trips, team-building exercises, creative arts, and more. Through positive mentorship and engaging experiences, scholars will develop confidence, strengthen life skills, increase cultural awareness, and build meaningful connections in a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment that promotes the development of the whole child—academically, culturally, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.

The Legacy Summer Leadership Experience powered by Verity Health Youth Services delivers high-quality behavioral health programming to youth ages 8–17 across the state of Ohio. Our services are led by qualified specialists and grounded in evidence-based Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum, ensuring every young person receives structured, meaningful support. All behavioral health programs and services are fully compliant and designed to meet the clinical and developmental needs of each youth we serve.

Our services include:

  • Evidence-based SEL curriculum delivered by credentialed specialists
  • Compliant behavioral health programs tailored to individual youth needs
  • Wraparound family support connecting caregivers to community resources
  • Trauma-informed care provided by qualified professionals

We Support Ohio RISE (Resilience through Integrated Systems and Excellence) — Ohio's specialized initiative supporting children with complex behavioral health needs and their families. We help families access the right care at the right time by reducing out-of-home placements, strengthening family stability, coordinating wraparound care across child-serving systems, and empowering families as equal partners in the care planning process. Our goal is to improve youth functioning across home, school, and community settings while connecting families to long-term, sustainable support.
