Founded in 2001, the Montclair Health and Wellness Partnership is a grassroots consortium of over 200 parents, educators, and community organizations. Our mission is to promote the physical, emotional, and social well-being of students, staff and families of the Montclair Public Schools through increased access to quality services, education and information.
We firmly believe that health is integral to academic and life success. If children experience mental, social, or physical stresses, they will struggle to succeed in the classroom and in their lives as adults. By improving our students' health, we directly help the district achieve its goals of academic success for all children from kindergarten through twelfth grade.
- We respond to the health needs of parents, school staff, and children by providing information, or simply a place to turn.
- We link community groups and organizations to our schools.
- We bring health and wellness expertise to all Montclair Public Schools.
- We help fund and facilitate new high-quality health-related programs and initiatives.
Since our inception, the Health and Wellness Partnership has brought more than $1.5 million of funds and in-kind services to Montclair Public Schools.
