The LAUSD Healthy Schools Campaign
The LAUSD Healthy Schools Campaign is an unprecedented effort to raise awareness about nutrition and fitness in our schools. SOSMentor has partnered with LAUSD Beyond the Bell Branch, LAUSD School Nursing Services, St. Vincent Medical Center and Newtritious to provide our innovative nutrition education curriculum to over 28,000 students in 700 LAUSD schools and to engage students of all ages in a district-wide healthy messages poster contest. The goal of the Campaign is to spread healthy messages throughout the community and to improve the health of school communities.

Why the Healthy Schools Campaign?
In the past 20 years, childhood obesity rates have more than tripled and a recent study by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention predicts that, unless current trends change, one in three adults will have type II diabetes by the year 2050.
Overweight and obese youth are at greater risk for cardiovascular disease, joint and bone problems, sleep apnea, and social and psychological problems. Obese children also underperform in school and cost our healthcare system hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
Through the district-wide LAUSD healthy Schools Campaign, SOSMentor has an extraordinarily rare opportunity to raise awareness about our nation’s childhood obesity epidemic by engaging thousands of Los Angeles students and their families in the fight against obesity and related illnesses.
What can I do to get involved?
Improving the health of our communities takes a team effort. Whether you are able to volunteer your time or resources, our students need all the support they can get. Learn about how you can help below:
