Future Healers goes global.
Honored to see the Aspen Institute in Washington D.C. recognize and partner with a program rooted in healing, education, and opportunity for our youth.

There’s something special about slowing down, exploring nature, and learning side by side.

These are the moments our Zoo Buddies will carry with them forever.

It takes a village to raise a healer.
From our partners to our mentors to every family who shows up, we are building something powerful together.
Future Healers is more than a program, it’s a community rooted in growth, care, and opportunity.

The future of healthcare is already in the room.

Future Healers getting real, hands-on experience learning skills, asking questions, and stepping into spaces they belong in.

This is bigger than a session. This is confidence being built in real time.

“Community is what turns exposure into opportunity—and opportunity into transformation.”

And that’s exactly what’s happening here.

Louisville, we’re raising the next generation of leaders, healers, and change-makers.

The Future Healers Program is receiving national attention after being selected for a prestigious The Aspen Institute fellowship.

Christopher 2X, executive director of Christopher 2X Game Changers, was named a 2026 Global Innovators Healthy Communities Fellow and is one of just eight leaders selected nationwide.

The Future Healers program—a partnership between the UofL Hospital Trauma Institute, the University of Louisville School of Medicine and Christopher 2X Game Changers—aims to help youth affected by violence by teaching them about general anatomy and surgery. The hope is that children will become inspired to build a better future for themselves and their communities.

Since launching in 2021, the program has grown from 25 participants to more than 1,300 kids across Louisville and surrounding communities and has recently expanded to rural areas. 🔗 ULHealth.co/4ci7Gb5
