BE COOL Early Elementary Education Program

NAN and the NAN Foundation is committed to promoting brain health education, and our BE COOL Program (Brain Education Child Onsite Oriented Learning) brings that mission to life for young students (K-3). Through interactive and engaging presentations, we teach early elementary school children about brain function, health, and safety in a way that’s both fun and educational.

Our goal is to provide schools with an exciting, hands-on approach to brain education. The BE COOL presentation is designed for early elementary students and is led by neuropsychologists who are members of the National Academy of Neuropsychology.

These brief presentations feature engaging slides and interactive activities, followed by open discussion. Presenters will be provided with all necessary materials, including slides and talking points, to deliver a dynamic and informative presentation. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to inspire young minds and support the NAN Foundation's mission to promote brain health awareness. If you're a NAN member, we encourage you to get involved and make a difference in your local schools!

BE COOL. Be Involved. Be a Brain Health Advocate.
