Story Behind the Curve
The Onslow County Health Department started teaching CATCH My Breath classes in January of 2023. After reaching out to potential partners we were able to schedule sessions with the first class finishing in February of 2023. After promoting the program in the Spring of 2023, Onslow County Schools scheduled classes through the end of the school year. Onslow County Schools are currently on summer break, which is reflected in a decrease in the number of CATCH My Breath participants over June, July, and August of 2023.
