Our Work in Minnesota

In Minnesota, we’re making it easier for kids to develop healthy habits.

More than 1,000 schools serving over 563,000 students across the state have joined Healthier Generation’s Healthy Schools Program, creating healthier school environments for children to thrive. Since 2007, 15 Minnesota schools have been recognized with National Healthy Schools Awards for their outstanding efforts.

We’ve also made it easier for nearly 11,000 youth in 95 out-of-school time programs to eat right and move more through our Healthy Out-of-School Time Initiative.

 

Success Stories

Hear from a school champion from just one of the many schools and districts we work with in Minnesota: Kelliher Public School District, enrolled in the Healthy Schools Program since 2014.

The Healthy School Program helped us achieve our wellness goals by providing us with many resources and ideas for healthier programming. The Smarter Lunchroom materials were very helpful to meet the USDA’s Smart Snacks in School guidelines.
