Schools are powerful places to shape the health, education and well-being of our children. That is why the Alliance’s Healthy Schools Program supports more than 9,000 schools across the U.S. in their efforts to create environments where physical activity and healthy eating are accessible and encouraged.
Healthy students are better able to concentrate on their work, attend school on a regular basis and perform better in class. Anyone can make a difference by joining the Healthy Schools Program to find tools and strategies to promote physical activity and healthy eating before, during, and after school.
