Where education meets empowerment, one brain at a time
​A FREE community outreach program designed to foster a passion in neuroscience​
Our Program

Our Mission Statement:
Where Education Meets Empowerment, one brain at a time

The NeuroKidz, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established by high school students, is a platform dedicated to enriching the lives of children from various backgrounds by giving them exposure to neuroscience through STEAM. We partner with elementary and middle schools in our community to spread a greater understanding of neuroscience through interactive lessons and hands-on activities​. Instead of enforcing growth through memorization, NeuroKidz advocates conceptual learning through enjoyment, allowing students to truly grasp what is being taught to them and apply their knowledge to enhance their lives.

Why Neuroscience?

Neuroscience is the study of the brain and its impact on behavior and cognitive functions, or how people think. 
It is a crucial aspect of education because of its implications in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) careers such as artificial intelligence, psychology, and economics. It is important for children to learn about neuroscience to discover how their brains function in order to maximize their potential. 

To empower students, we must show them how they can control their own cognitive/emotional health and learning. Teaching students how the brain operates is a huge step. Even young students can learn strategies for priming their brains to learn more efficiently.
​
Teaching students the mechanism behind brain function and approaches to work that mechanism effectively can help students believe they can create a more intelligent and powerful brain. It also shows them that striving for emotional awareness and physical health is part of keeping an optimally functioning brain.


Through our program, students will learn not only about the technical aspects of neuroscience, but also mental health, prioritization, sleep, and addiction prevention. We utilize simple lessons, hands-on activities, and engaging presentations to foster the effective learning of neuroscience.
