2025 OK Challenge finalists
With the goal of inspiring a youth-led wellness movement, we asked high school students across the country to share their creative ideas for managing stress and worry. After all, when it comes to navigating challenging times, they are the experts on the subject.
From Oregon to Texas to New Jersey, students rose to the challenge.
We hope you’ll give their projects a try with your families, friends, and students—if you do, please consider sharing your photos or reflections with us at hello@okyou.org, or by tagging us on Instagram or Facebook.
Your participation uplifts and affirms the power of young voices in leading us toward a more OK world.
