Hi All, Please read and take action today!!!? ? Not sure who to contact in your state?

SOPHE URGENT ACTION ALERT Call Senators TODAY, Monday, April 13, 2015 ? The Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) will be marking-up a bipartisan bill introduced by Senators Alexander (R-TN) and Murray (D-WA) that will finally reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary School Act. The name of their new bill is "Every Child Achieves Act of 2015." (Marking-up is the process by which a Congressional Committee debates, amends and possibly rewrite proposed legislation.) ? A summary of the Act can be found here:? ?http://www.help.senate.gov/imo/media/The_Every_Child_Achieves_Act_of_2015--summary.pdf.? ? The full proposed Act can be found here:? ?http://www.help.senate.gov/imo/media/S_EveryChildAchievesActof2015.pdf ? SOPHE's response to the Majority and Ranking member can be found here:?http://www.sophe.org/alexander_and_murray_final.pdf ? The Act elevates physical education to core curriculum status thus allowing jurisdictions to use Title I/II funds. We applaud that. ? However, Health Education is not included in the core curriculum.? We need your help in letting the Senate know this is not acceptable and health education must be added as a CORE subject. ? ACTION NEEDED: PLEASE TAKE ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS IMMEDIATELY. The Act is scheduled for markup on Tuesday, April 14, 10am (ET), so this is URGENT. ? 1. If your Senator(s) is on the HELP Committee, call their office(s) and let them know health education is critical for children to achieve success in school. ??Calls are the best as time is short and emails can get backed up.? Ask to speak with the health aide or feel free to leave the message with the receptionist.? List of Senators on HELP Committee:?http://www.help.senate.gov/ List of phone numbers for all Senators:?? http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm 2.?If your Senator is not on the HELP Committee, contact them anyway and urge them to influence their colleagues on the Committee.?Also it is still appropriate to contact HELP Senators even if you are not a constituent as this is a national issue. ? Quick Talking Points: Teaching Health education as a core subject is essential to help every child achieve in 2015. Today only 38% of districts require teaching all 15 health topics to high school students, yet students' risks for many preventable and costly chronic conditions are soaring - costing the nation billions in emergency room visits and health care debt of states.? (Cite CDC YRBS health statistics of children/adolescents from your own state -?? ?http://nccd.cdc.gov/youthonline/App/Default.aspx?SID=HS Studies show that engaging in even one type of these risky health behaviors consistently are more likely to fail in school or drop out.? Research? shows evidence-based health education CAN IMPROVE students' health behaviors and help them achieve academically - and making them more likely to graduate and become productive citizens. Without Congressional support for health education as a core subject, health education will continue to be an afterthought in schools- leaving us to fail the Healthy People 2020 objectives for the nation and perpetuating a cycle of health illiteracy and spiraling health costs.? 3. Forward this message to your health education colleagues, listservs, chapters and ask them to call as well.? Let's flood them with messages, including social media!? ? Facebook and Twitter -- Sample tweets:? ? For meaningful education reform, Hlth Ed must be a core curriculum in ESEA/Every Child Achieves Act 2015 #HealthEdAchieves @SOPHEtweets?? ?

For 20 years, National Public Health Week (NPHW) has been bringing together communities from across the United States to recognize the contributions of public health and highlight important public health issues. This year, one section of the Oregon Public Health Association (OPHA) found a new way to support NPHW. The Health Education and Promotion (HEP) section of OPHA partnered with two local universities to encourage student involvement, promote student awareness, and foster growth in our future public health leaders. ?The idea came to us during a HEP leadership meeting,? shares Sara Gardner-Smith, Chair of the Health Education & Promotion Section. ?We wanted to engage the student community in a way that helped them make their ideas a reality. It was the perfect collaboration.? The HEP Section contributed grant funds and mentoring to student public health groups at Oregon State University in Corvallis, OR and Pacific University in Forest Grove, OR. Oregon State University?s College of Public Health and Human Sciences? Public Health Club hosted a health fair on campus. Students recruited 20 different organizations on and off campus to promote all forms of good health ? mentally, socially, sexually, and physically. Students ended NPHW with an inspiring message on communication in public health from Richard Besser, MD, Chief Health and Medical Editor for ABC News. The goal was to increase student awareness around the many facets of health, encourage advocacy and discussion, and promote overall well-being for students and faculty. Pacific University students used the additional support to participate in the Oregon Master of Public Health Program Student Poster Symposium during NPHW in Portland, OR. Twenty-five students had the opportunity to present their ideas for novel community health interventions. Projects ranged from an advocacy campaign to comprehensive sex education in public schools to an on-campus stress relief program. For many of these students, it was their first presentation of a scientific poster. The event brought the cohort together in important conversation and nurtured these emerging professionals in their work in contemporary public health practice. Each university?s group of public health students and faculty advisors created two incredibly successful events for NPHW. ?The end result completely exceeded our expectations,? says Gardner-Smith. ?It was the first year of partnership, and these are student organizations, so we didn?t know what to expect. We were so pleased with the outcome and look forward to more collaboration with local colleges and universities.? Both events have been featured in the Oregon section of the July issue of The Nation?s Health: http://thenationshealth.aphapublications.org/content/45/5/20.full#sec-29. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
