Attention Asthma and School Programs! Apply for the National Environmental Leadership Award in Asthma Management

In 2013, North East Independent School District was the first school district to win the National Environmental Leadership Award in Asthma Management.
 
This award is EPA’s highest recognition a program and its leaders can receive for delivering excellent environmental asthma management as part of their comprehensive asthma care services. Each year, EPA honors exceptional health plans, health care providers and communities in action. 
 
This recognition allows school districts the opportunity to communicate to their stakeholders the true partnership that exists for improving the health of students with asthma within their community.  I encourage school districts that are excelling in comprehensive asthma management to apply for the award under Communities in Action. As a reminder, applications are due on February 3, 2014, 11:59 p.m. EST.
