RADical Health

RADical Health
RADical Health empowers and equips young adults with tools to stay well and stay resilient.
Young adults require support in developing their mental, physical and emotional health. This need is particularly pressing due to elevated anxiety, stress and depression over the last few years.
RADical Health is a four-week, evidence-based experience that empowers young adults with skills to build resilience so they’re equipped to cope before they reach a crisis point.
How It Works
With the support of trained peer Guides, participants meet in small groups once a week for four weeks to explore key themes:
- How Do I Connect? Strengthening Emotional Intelligence
- What Matters To Me? Principles & Priorities
- Why Am I Stressed? Building Resilience
- Where Do I Go From Here? And How Do I Get There?
RADical Health was designed to help students engage in college life – serving as an on-ramp for them to engage with existing resources and build connection and community among peers.
All content, resources, training and support to implement RADical Health are fully funded for all partners.

This program showed me that everyone is going through shared experiences and no one has it all figured out. You are normally not alone in your struggles.- RADical Health Participant

Following our pilot with New York University (NYU) and several other schools in 2020, RADical Health scaled nationally to more than 70 partners and 20,000+ participants. RADical Hope also partners with organizations to support young adults outside the school structure, including professional athletes, community groups and more.
In collaboration with New York University (NYU) and the Wasserman Career Center, RADical Health’s “Career Accelerator” certification program was recognized with the 2022 Career Services Excellence Award from NACE, the National Association of Colleges and Employers.
