Healthy Schools Campaign
Healthy
Schools Campaign is the leading authority on healthy
school environments and a voice for people who care about our
environment, our children and education. Our mission is to advocate
for policies and model programs that allow students and staff
members to learn and work in a healthy school environment.
Recognizing the connection between a clean environment,
healthy children and better education, we address the problems
of asthma and obesity by promoting school based programs, practices
and policies such as green cleaning, healthy school design, healthy
school food choices and nutrition education. We work with a broad
network of individuals and organizations that includes parents,
teachers, school administrators, students, public health and education
advocates, policymakers and community leaders. Our taskforces
and committees engage hundreds of individuals representing a wide
variety of organizations in HSC-led activities.
Working with the Healthy Schools Campaign to promote School
Wellness demonstrates a commitment to improving the health of
young people. We act as a resource to business and industry,
government agencies, school districts, trade unions and other
groups who share a commitment to a clean environment, healthy
children and better education. To find out how you can join
