Our Story

Imagine 1927, a group of dedicated doctors huddled at a public health meeting, their vision clear: healthy kids thriving in schools. This gathering led to the formation of the American Association of School Physicians, the proud ancestor of the American School Health Association (ASHA). Recognizing that it wasn't just doctors who cared, counselors, nutritionists, and physical education teachers joined the movement. By 1936, ASHA opened its doors to everyone passionate about student well-being, officially changing its name to the American School Health Association. Today, ASHA is a vibrant community of experts from diverse backgrounds, united by a singular mission: to empower kids to thrive in healthy, supportive school environments.

Our Impact

ASHA strives to keep costs down while steadily improving programs and services. The organization offers student scholarships, supports leadership development through the Future Leaders Academy, and recognizes outstanding achievement in school health through expanded awards. ASHA publishes the well-respected Journal of School Health and hosts an annual conference that is top-notch. As an ASHA member, continuing education units (CEUs) are free. Your donation helps these programs grow.
