Description
We have done networking with organizations and individuals with practical ideas and the facilitation of steps necessary to solve implementation barriers in having wellness policies and healthy living spaces put into practice. We have done children's gardening programs, advocated for equity in school wellness policies, talks on creating healthy environments, contest for children and teens to encourage healthy lifestyles. We have a collaborative partnership with PDE and PDH for an annual contest with high school students to provide artwork promoting health and equity, the cover of the SHIP State Health Improvement plan.
