Creative Arts: Healthy Choices/Project Change
- Creative Arts Team (CAT)
- (212) 652-2800
Mission
We are a nonprofit organization at The City University of New York that uses the power of drama to inspire youth to learn.
Activities
Project CHANGE is a special peer-education, HIV/STI awareness and prevention program, providing workshops and residencies.
Through interactive strategies and drama, Creative Arts Team (CAT) captures a panoramic view of our society and zooms in on specific issues and behaviors that create obstacles in our lives. These workshops encourage participants, in a safe environment through a co-intentional process, to carefully examine the choices, decisions and consequences of everyday challenges, to raise awareness, discover solutions and promote problem solving, decision-making, critical thinking and self-advocacy skills, and to build the confidence of every participant.
