NASBE’s Center for Safe and Healthy Schools’ goal is to encourage safe, healthy, and nurturing school environments for all of the nation’s children and youth. Since 1987, the Center has provided guidance and assistance to state and local education policymakers and practitioners on key issues affecting the health and wellbeing of children.
We accomplish this work through partnerships with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH) and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
