The Home & School Health (HASH) Council is focused on the development of sound health, nutrition and activity habits in the home and school environments.

For the home, this includes education of the caregivers, as well as helping to provide resources for health professionals to ensure a good start in life.

For the school, this includes working to promote a complete coordinated school health approach with a particular focus on school nutrition policy, physical education and sports-related issues. The council’s primary methods are education, advocacy, policy and resource development.
