Connecticut Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child Partnership
Started in 2023, the Connecticut Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) Partnership is a five-year, CDC-funded collaboration between the UConn Collaboratory on School and Child Health and the UConn Rudd Center for Food Policy and Health. The goal of the project is to protect and improve the health and well-being of school-age children and adolescents in communities in CT that are medically underserved and disproportionately affected by chronic diseases and associated risk factors. We support the implementation of evidence-based policies, practices, programs, and services consistent with the WSCC model.
