What is the main goal of Project CURB?

The main goal of Project CURB is to help you meet your goals-whatever they may be. CURB stands for Chicago Urban Resiliency Training. It's a Chicago program designed by doctors, psychologists, social workers, and kids in Chicago to help kids in Chicago grow strong. That means reaching your goals and not getting dragged down with the blues. To help you meet your goals, Project CURB wants to teach you how taking part in regular, enjoyable, worthwhile activities, thinking positively, and building strong friendships can help protect you from depression as you make the transition into adulthood.

No one else has to know that you're participating in Project CURB.
