Announcing Healthy Schools Colorado
The Colorado Health Foundation has awarded RMC and its partners, the Colorado Department of Education and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, $6.8 million over three years to administer grants and provide training and technical assistance through an exciting new program, Healthy Schools Colorado.
Healthy Schools Colorado will fund five large Colorado school districts or regions to support the implementation of the Coordinated School Health Model in schools and to support district policy efforts that focus on the following specific, measurable outcomes of the Colorado Health Foundation:
- Increase number of children who engage in moderate or vigorous physical
activity.
- Increase number of children who eat adequate amounts of fruits and vegetables
daily.
- Increase number of children who receive healthy meals at school and have
access to healthy vending choices.
- Increase number of children who receive evidence-based care for chronic disease and who can self-manage their chronic disease.
RMC and its partners have re-opened the Healthy Schools Colorado three-year grant opportunity. Please click here for more information.
