Join Today!
Dear Colleague:
The Buckeye Healthy Schools Alliance (BHSA) invites you and your organization to become a member of Ohio’s only statewide coordinated school health coalition. Our purpose is to support lasting approaches to school health in order to impact health and academic success among Ohio’s youth. Whether you are a professional, student, educator, business leader, health related organization, or any group who supports the ideas of coordinated school health, members of BHSA share a common goal with you – developing healthy and productive citizens for the 21st century workforce.
Did you know that education is one of the strongest predictors of health? The more schooling individuals have, the better their health. Less education predicts earlier death and higher levels of risky health behaviors such as smoking, being overweight, or low levels of physical activity.
Together, we can make a difference. Members of BHSA will partner to educate the public about the impact health has on learning and support sound policies and programs to promote academic success. Join BHSA today by completing our no-cost membership application. Together, we can achieve healthy youth, successful schools, and thriving communities.
Sincerely,
Heather Vilvens, M.Ed., CHES
Executive Director
Buckeye Healthy Schools Alliance
