Healthy Lifestyle Choices
A program designed for integration into an existing high school Health class
The Healthy Lifestyle Choices (HLC) program is suited well for integration into an existing high school Health class. Students learn how practical Decision Skills help enable better decisions for issues related to their personal health.
HLC lessons help students gain insight about themselves and provide effective tools for students to navigate themselves towards better improved overall health.
