Who Should Use This Tool?

Education and public health professionals will find WellSAT an effective tool for evaluating the quality of existing school wellness policies. School district level administrators, district wellness policy advisory board members (especially the person designated to implement or enforce the policy), and researchers are also intended users.

The WellSAT is not intended for use in assessing the degree to which school districts have implemented their wellness policies. For assistance creating and implementing a school wellness policy, visit Action for Healthy Kids, the National Alliance for Nutrition and Activity, or the US Department of Agriculture.
