What does a healthy school look like to you? Join our conversation on social media!

On January 28, 2019, CDC Healthy Schools will launch a weeklong social media hashtag campaign on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn to increase awareness of the impact school health programs have in schools and school districts across the United States.

We’re inviting you to participate in the campaign by creating social media posts to answer the question, “What does a healthy school look like to you?”

We encourage creativity! Your post can take the form of a video, photo, graphic, or text, and you can post on any or all of your social media channels. We just ask one thing: please use the hashtag #CDCHealthySchools in your posts.

During the campaign, we’ll be posting, too. Look out for our posts and follow us on Facebook, Twitter and the other social media platforms (@CDCChronic and @CDC_eHealth) and then share, like, and comment on them!

Stay Connected!

As part of the campaign, we are also launching our CDC Healthy Schools Video Series. These videos feature the successes of our former grantees from Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, and Tennessee. You will be able to access the videos from our CDC Healthy Schools website at https://www.cdc.gov/healthyschools/stateprograms.htm.

CDC Healthy Schools focuses on the well-being of children, teens, and adults in schools and develops effective tools and recommendations to ensure students are healthy and ready to learn. To achieve this goal, we support state and local education and health agencies and national organizations to implement school health policies and practices.
