Making a Difference
Much of our work involves measuring the difference others make. Getting involved and making our own difference is also an important part of who we are as individuals and as an organization.
Live Well Schools developed the Tools for Schools toolkit to highlight innovative and effective ways for school policymakers and other key stakeholders to meet the unique health and wellness needs of every student. Tools for Schools is now online and provides a wider array of resources based on a broader definition of wellness that includes health equity and focuses on addressing health disparities. Focus areas include chronic absenteeism, childhood obesity, wellness policies, and social and emotional wellness.
