About dance4life USA

The NCO of dance4life USA (Philadelphia) is Philadelphia FIGHT's Youth Health Empowerment Project (Y-HEP).  

To address this growing public health concern, dedicated adults and youth founded Youth Health Empowerment Project (Y-HEP). In 1994, Y-HEP began as a citywide pilot project to reduce the spread of HIV and STDs among adolescents and young adults in the Philadelphia area. Today Y-HEP is a vibrant, multi-faceted, community-based health and leadership development program for Philadelphia youth. Annually, Y-HEP serves over 8,000 high risk, hard to reach teens and young adults through a range of activities.

 dance4life USA started in 2008 (restart 2010).
