HEALTH

Health and nutrition impacts the way a student learns, feels and thinks. Research shows that healthy eating has been linked to higher grades, better concentration, more energy, and better attendance. Healthy eating also minimizes future risks like anemia, Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, tooth decay and obesity. Parents play a crucial role in helping children establish healthy eating habits for life.

However, sometimes parents may come across factors that inhibit their ability to access or provide adequate health care or healthy food choices. This is why support with nutrition and health is ‘wrapped around’ CVPromise’s continuum of solutions to support from ‘cradle to career’.
