In 2008, The California Endowment funded an expansion of
Teachers for Healthy Kids to create
Healthy Bodies, Healthy Minds- a project that addresses the link between learning and physical education, physical activity, and nutrition. The purpose of this project is to educate CTA members and staff about these issues, provide information about easy to implement classroom and school site activities, and promote policies that support optimal nutrition and physical activity options at both the state and local levels.
This project is currently in the initial planning stages, but many of our
partners and other organizations have been addressing these issues for many years and can provide you with
resources and information.
Come back soon as the project gets further into development.
