Joining us is Joel Penton CEO & Founder Lifewise Academy to share about LifeWise Academy which was founded in 2018 as a division of Stand For Truth, an event-based nonprofit ministry with a mission to reach public school students.
The creation of LifeWise was inspired by a released time program in Van Wert, OH, which boasts a 95% participation rate among public elementary school students.
Stand For Truth and the Van Wert released time program teamed up to create LifeWise Academy, launching the first two LifeWise programs in the fall of 2019.
LifeWise Academy now serves more than 150 school districts nationwide.
