Be Strong State Representative Program
Inspire. Interact. Ignite. Intervene. Impact.
Be Strong launched a nominate your student campaign in November 2016 designed to elevate the voices of inspiring students across the country who are working to create an inclusive tomorrow. In 2017, Be Strong will be co-laboring with each representative in four key areas: resilience training, random acts of kindness, awareness & advocacy.
