As a Health and Family Life Specialist at the Virginia Department of Education, I commend the Whole Health Consortium at Virginia Tech for their commitment to promoting equitable health and well-being within communities. Their transdisciplinary approach to research is instrumental in addressing the complex factors that influence individuals' ability to lead meaningful lives.
At the Virginia Department of Education, we recognize the interconnectedness of health, education, and community well-being. By collaborating with organizations like the Whole Health Consortium, we can leverage research findings to inform policies and programs that support holistic development among students and families.
