California Collaborative
The California Local School Wellness Policy Collaborative brings together state leaders committed to improving student wellness and academic success.
We inspire school communities to take their wellness policies from paper to practice.
We are a catalyst for school communities and stakeholders to implement highly effective local school wellness policies in California schools to support student health and academic achievement.
To build broad support for local school wellness policy implementation among schools, after school programs, health departments, elected officials and community stakeholders.
Assist districts in revising their policies to meet Child Nutrition Reauthorization Act/Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act of 2010 requirements and strengthening their skills and commitment to implement local priorities and monitor adopted local school wellness policies.
