WIN for KC Youth Programs

Programs such as the Youth Advisory Board and LIVE ACTIVE allow girls and women of all ages to work together to promote female participation in sports. WIN for KC is giving girls the opportunity to improve leadership skills while gaining knowledge about the importance of fitness and a healthy lifestyle through our youth programs.

live active Peer Mentor Program

WIN for KC recently launched the revised peer mentor program, LIVE ACTIVE, at both sessions of Camp WIN in June 2009.
