CATCH Global Foundation

CATCH Whole Child Health Programs - In SchoolCATCH Global Foundation empowers school communities to cultivate Whole Child wellness as a lever for student success and social equity by providing health education curriculum, educator professional development, and wrap-around implementation services to K-12 schools across the U.S. and Canada. Working alongside our school and community partners, CATCH provides myriad programmatic offerings to meet the specific needs of a school campus, with programs that address nutrition, physical activity, vaping and substance misuse prevention, mental health education, social emotional learning, oral health and sun safety, as well as emphasize the interdependence of a child's physical, mental and emotional health. We also work with school districts and other agencies to institutionalize long-term PSE (policy-systems-environment) structures to support youth wellbeing. Currently, CATCH reaches more than 3 million youth per year in schools in all 50 states. For more details on our work in schools, see our annual report at catch.org/annual-report

CATCH P.E. & SEL Programs - InternationalThe purpose of CATCH Global Foundation is to elevate health for good, targeting communities with great health needs across the globe. Through our international programs, CATCH serves schools in low- to middle-income countries where students lack access to quality, evidence-based health programming. Since 2016, CATCH has expanded the reach of our science-based physical activity program to school communities in Latin America, Kenya, and India, developing partnerships with Ministries of Education, Universities, local school boards, and other community-based organizations. Integrated within the curriculum, professional development, and implementation methodology of CATCH's signature P.E. program, CATCH also delivers movement-based social emotional learning concepts to schools.

CATCH Whole Child Health Programs - Out-of-School TimeHigh-quality preschool and out-of-school time programs help to support the positive development of a child's social, emotional, and cognitive skills, while also promoting physical health and wellbeing. CATCH's out-of-school time nutrition and physical activity program, CATCH Kids Club (CKC), delivers age-appropriate games and activities, along with instructional materials and video guides and also provide adaptations for inclusion of youth with physical and intellectual disabilities and social emotional learning integration. Through CKC, CATCH offers programming in partnership with many YMCAs, JCCs, and Boys & Girls Clubs around the country.
