Lunch & Legacy

Lunch & Legacy is a trauma-informed, 18-week life skills development program that integrates social-emotional learning (SEL) with engaging, hands-on activities. Through creative exercises like emotion charades, identity shields, and career discovery games, students strengthen emotional regulation, conflict resolution, and decision-making skills, all while having fun and feeling seen.
