Playworks has been a key partner to Kaiser Permanente over the past three years in our work to create a culture of health in schools. Their work is even more important as we deepen our efforts in schools with our Thriving Schools initiative.

Research shows us that active kids are healthier kids, that they experience a greater sense of well-being and that they do better at school. Playworks supports lifelong health for all kids through a focus on fun, inclusive physical activity during recess and after school. We have been excited to support their work and to see the excellent results.
