What can the ISHC do?
 

Evaluate student strengths and weaknesses, risk and protective factors.

Develop strategies for health education based on empirical data about what your students really do.

Address the discrepancy between perception and reality.  Numerous studies of schools have shown that students invariably overestimate other students’ unhealthy behavior, thus increasing their own susceptibility, as in the notion that "everybody does it."  Share ISHC data with students and parents to encourage healthy behavior—a proven strategy.

Track behavioral changes between grade levels and use follow-up surveys to monitor response to intervention.
