School Health
We want a world where every student’s wellness is a priority, every school has the resources to manage their students’ health, and students are empowered to take charge of their health.
Our school health programs focus on the students’ complete physical, mental and social well-being (as defined by the World Health Organization). The program components are based on national standards, align with state guidelines and are evidence-based. We take the programs into the schools to meet the students, teachers and parents where they are.

Physical changes, an increase in academic rigor, and social factors make the middle school years a pivotal time for early adolescent development. We created a comprehensive program for addressing social-emotional wellness. It offers participating schools a learning curriculum, staff development, free social-emotional wellness screenings, and access to follow up care.
Teenage students begin to make their own decisions about food, activity level and other lifestyle choices. Our free high school program includes a curriculum with personal application components and teaches teens to take charge of their health, showing how today’s decisions can shape their futures.
