The GCH Network
The Foundation for Global Community Health (GCH) interweaves global health, wellness and sustainability (the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals/SDGs) initiatives within a successful health education platform (Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child).
We all know that one-size does not fit all, particularly in regard to health and learning strategies. The GCH Network provides a unique evidence-based platform for school districts, associations, and community organizations to collect, create, and share their own local resources, reflecting local cultures and designated initiatives, all supported by a global framework. Below are examples of content diversity and gamification by students around the world.

GCH School Best Practices & Research
Peer-reviewed research from universities around the world provides evidence that GCH’s Brain Breaks® platform works, is scalable, sustainable, and can positively impact student health and interpersonal relationships.
Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015 all 193 United Nation members agreed to the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs/Global Goals) – a global call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.
Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC)
Every child in every school deserves to be healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged is the focus of the WSCC model. CDC and ASCD developed this model in collaboration with key leaders from the fields of health, public health, education, and school health. The WSCC model strengthens a unified and collaborative approach designed to improve learning and health in our nation’s schools.
