ABOUT OUR PROGRAM:
Project Bracelet for Schools was launched in January 2023 at West Bloomfield Middle School by Eliza Sokoli. She was inspired by a TikTok video on her "For You Page" that was about negativity in schools. Ever since then, Project Bracelet has grown to multiple schools in the Metro Detroit area. Project Bracelet aims to promote positivity by providing schools with an innovative aid to their SEL lessons. We provide bins of bracelets that are packaged with positive messages. Students are encouraged to take a bracelet whenever they are feeling upset, anxious, sad, or they just need a "lift up". Project Bracelet also works directly with students at the school to promote youth entrepreneurship.
