Mission
The mission of the NC School Health Connection (NCSHC) is to identify and promote effective childhood obesity prevention programs in North Carolina public schools to empower key stakeholders and encourage collaboration among those seeking to improve student health and academic achievement.

Purpose
Many organizations assist schools in becoming healthier environments for children.  It is crucial that such organizations coordinate efforts to ensure that valuable resources are best used and that schools throughout North Carolina have access to initiatives.  NC School Health Connection’s map is a central coordination tool for policymakers, foundations, state and local school board members and administrators, educators, nonprofits, and parents.
