Government and Community Affairs

This program offers health education activities similar to the FRESH Program to members of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, ages six through sixteen. HEARTS is formatted to reflect the requirements for scout badges or patches, and offers a basic screening and education program that can qualify for a new Heart Health patch, or activities can be incorporated in other scouting badge require­ments (CPR, camping, etc.) The basic program includes a health screening and four learning modules provided by Johns Hopkins Bayview staff, geared specifically to the ages of the scouts. Health screenings are offered scouts and parents. An all day workshop for Girl Scouts is offered in the fall.
