Action for Healthy Kids

Action for Healthy Kids (AFHK) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to mobilizing school professionals, families, and communities to take actions that lead to healthier schools and students. Founded in 2002, the organization focuses on improving children's health by addressing nutrition, physical activity, and social-emotional health through school-based programs and grants. AFHK partners with schools across the United States to implement wellness policies and provide resources that support the "Whole Child" approach to education and health. Their initiatives aim to reduce childhood obesity and improve academic performance by ensuring students are healthy, active, and ready to learn. The organization also provides professional development and technical assistance to help school districts create sustainable health environments.
