What We Do
SwingPals empowers Durham's underserved youth to build resilience through mindfulness and golf. We help students create a safe environment to develop emotional regulation skills, allowing them the freedom to unlock their potential" Our specific program activities are an in-school gym program delivered to 6th graders in, currently, 6 Durham Middle Schools, where we teach students the foundations of mindfulness through the medium of golf. Our other primary program is an afterschool program for 7th and 8th graders to build on what they learn in the gym and build more resilience and stronger emotional regulation skills so they can better tolerate stress and the anxiety of change they are consistently confronted with in their lives.
