Exciting news! Healthy Schools Campaign has been nominated for the 2012 Aetna Voices of Health Awards, which means we're being honored as one of the nation's top community health organizations. In particular, our Parents United for Healthy Schools coalition is in the spotlight! We're thrilled to receive this recognition and excited about the opportunity to let more people know about the amazing work parents are doing to create healthy environments at school -- and health futures for children -- in many of Chicago's Latino and African-American communities.
Please take a moment to show your support by heading to the Voices of Health site and voting for HSC! With each vote, we'll get that much closer to being named the winner and an award of $30,000, which will go a long way in bringing programs like Parents United to even more people.
Check out HSC's video and cast your vote online here. You can vote up to 10 times!
Plus: This summer, Parents United received national recognition for success in promoting healthy school environments and engaging parents in advocating for wellness as a social justice issue. Learn more about Parents United here!
Congrats, HSC and Parents United! You got all my 10 votes :)
