San Elizario ISD, Project Vida partner up to help students be 'positive agents of change'

EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14/CBS4) — Students in the San Elizario School District are getting a significant funding boost that will increase resources aimed at anti-bullying, sexual health and emotionally holistic education.

San Elizario ISD is launching FutureGen in partnership with community advocacy group, Project Vida, thanks to a $1.9 million grant the organization won in 2023.

The initiative will foster "evidence-based" programs at San Elizario's middle and high schools, which Project Vida said will give students the tools and resources needed to be "positive agents of change" in the community, through comprehensive health education and supportive school environments.
