Healthy Equity and Actions by Randolph Teens (HEART)
The inaugural HEART Leaders from the 2022-2023 School Year were Randolph High School students from the National Honor Society. The Leaders undertook projects that further the goals and objectives as identified by the Community Wellness Project Steering Committee and Action Groups. Their two areas of focus for the school year were healthy food and mental health.
Supported by the Community Wellness Project, students also received on-the-job training to develop skills that they will carry on beyond the program. In addition to learning more about what equity and justice means in the context of the Community Wellness Plan, they also learned about how to achieve equitable and just health outcomes for the Town.
We were so grateful to continue the partnership with Randolph Youthworks program to support this work. The program is administered by the Commonwealth Corporation in partnership with MassHire South Shore. More information about the YouthWorks program can be found on the Commonwealth Corporation's website.
