Project Brainy is a curriculum for use in out-of-school-time programs to help youth overcome pandemic-related learning loss in science and literacy while supporting their motivation and boosting social and emotional development. Project Brainy allows youth to participate in hands-on activities relating to the brain and mental wellness. Having run a successful pilot with positive outcomes on youth interest and knowledge, the VISTA will support our work to improve and disseminate Project Brainy more widely. VISTA activities will include expansion of our partnership network as well as trial runs of neuroscience-related activities and assessments." Show less
