This presentation style app developed for Harlem Hospital, NY promotes health awareness for a variety of conditions.

In a storybook setting, the user is walked through home management techniques for each condition. With encouraging graphics and an easily understandable reading level (available in English, French and Spanish), this app is designed for both children and parents to help get an idea of how to better live with these conditions. Each presentation concludes with a short quiz to test the concepts covered, to make a more lasting impression.

The presentations include:
- Asthma
- Dental Hygiene
- Nutrition
- Sickle Cell Anemia
