HEALTHY Tekoa Coalition
Helping Empower Action, Leadership, Teamwork and Health in our Youth
Building a HEALTHY Community
For children to grow up and make healthy choices, the community needs to expect each child to succeed, families to make healthy choices, adults to set clear standards, and the community to provide opportunities for growth, learning, and recognition.
HEALTHY Tekoa Coalition forms partnerships, collaborations, and communications aimed at increasing Tekoa's success.
