Combining STEM and wellness is both a powerful equation for equity and an efficient way to implement both practices in a complementary manner, which will lessen the challenge of prioritizing one topic over another and help meet the shared goals of communities, schools, and families. This brief — created by NGCP with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, Afterschool Alliance, and National AfterSchool Association — describes the benefits of blending STEM with healthy eating and physical activity. The publication is intended to generate dialogue, foster collaboration, and stimulate ideas for integrating these two important topics together.
