## What the grant funds

The purpose of this 5-year cooperative agreement is to protect and improve the health and well-being of school-age children and adolescents in underserved and disproportionately affected communities. Recipients will use the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model to: establish key partnerships to support school health programs; promote dissemination and implementation of CDC school health guidelines, tools, and resources through Professional Development (PD) and Technical Assistance (TA); and use action planning to implement physical activity, school nutrition, and school health policies, practices, programs, and services within state and local education agencies (LEAs), schools, and out-of-school time (OST) settings. Expected outcomes to be achieved include an (1) increase in the numbers of schools with an action plan based on the completion of CDC’s School Health Index (SHI); (2) increased implementation of Comprehensive School Physical Activity Programs (CSPAP); (3) increased school nutrition and food security policies and practices; (4) increased school-based health services that support students with chronic health conditions; and (5) increased physical activity, healthy dietary behaviors, and self-management of chronic health conditions among students.
