JR’s Story

JR is an 11-year old girl who has been diagnosed with ADHD. JR has been getting treatments along with therapy to help manage her ADHD but, JR still struggles with being hyper and having impulsive behavior. JR is raised by a single mother who wants JR to build energy in something positive and feels that JR can benefit from a sort of physical activity, rather than medication. Opportunity4Kids was more than happy to give a Scholarship to JR to participate in boxing lessons.
