<p>Kids Korps is happy to announce the launch of its latest program – <em>Hugs 4 Kids</em>, honoring the life of Julien Hug. Thanks to the financial support of many individuals, Kids Korps was able to dedicate resources to develop this innovative youth empowerment program. While Kids Korps members routinely give OF themselves to help others, <em>Hugs 4 Kids</em> is about giving TO yourself.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.kidskorps.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/julien-hug-photo_296x385.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2139" title="julien-hug-photo_296x385" src="http://www.kidskorps.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/julien-hug-photo_296x385.jpg" alt="" width="296" height="385" /></a></p>
<p>Kids Korps staff, with the assistance of the <em>Hugs 4 Kids </em>Advisory Board (Denise Hug, Jennifer Keslik-Bell, Maggie Bobileff, Andrea Carrier, Dana Knees, Marie Daniels, Joanne Wolf, and Eric Iantorno), developed the program’s mission, which is to “<em>ignite healthy inner growth and support the positive identity of young people by engaging youth, families, and communities in educational programs, hands-on activities, and awareness campaigns</em>.” The program’s vision is for youth to accept themselves and honor their self-worth, conquer their fears and challenges, and achieve a sense of purpose empowering their lives. The program is centered around four core themes: self leadership, character development, health &amp; wellness, and empowerment.</p>

The <em>Hugs 4 Kids</em> website is just the starting point for this important program! Kids Korps has dedicated the entire month of February to <em>Hugs 4 Kids</em>. Events have been scheduled that will introduce Kids Korps members and the community to this new program.
