About Concrete Safaris

Concrete Safaris prepares youth in East Harlem and beyond to lead healthy lives and shape their environment through outdoor education, play, exploration and community engagement. According the NYC Department of Health, East Harlem has some of the highest rates of childhood obesity and diabetes in New York City. Since 2008, youth enrolled in Concrete Safaris'​ programs have learned how the physical environment where they live, learn, and play impacts their health. Concrete Safaris'​ participants take part in activities such as gardening, running, cycling, fishing, hiking, and swimming as a means to address disease prevention from the child's perspective.
