In this special episode of AUHSD Future Talks, Superintendent Matsuda talks with youth leaders, Alyssa Muldong and Luqman Mohammed from the National Healthy Schools Collaborative Youth Council (NHSC) sponsored by Kaiser Permanente.   In addition, Staci Boretsky, from Kaiser Permanente, a long time supporter of AUHSD, discusses why Kaiser Permanente believes it is important to invest in youth voice and leadership.

During the talk, participants discuss their interest in student mental health, the 5Cs versus test scores, recommendation for teachers/curriculum, workshops with Kaiser Permanente, why Kaiser Permanente launched National Healthy Schools Collaborative Youth Council. For the last year, the NHSC youth council, made up of 17 students from around the country, have been studying how to improve the mental health of students in schools.  The youth leaders have developed 15 recommendations for K12 schools on this important topic.

Three of our talented students, Luqman Mohammed (Oxford Academy), Michelle Bacilio Guzman (Savanna High School), and Alyssa Muldong (Magnolia High School), have been appointed to the National Healthy Schools Collaborative Youth Council. Luqman is addressing mental health and school transportation, Michelle focuses on body image and mental health, and Alyssa is improving school food quality and promoting sustainability. This opportunity, backed by Kaiser Permanente Thriving Schools, empowers them to shape healthier school environments nationwide.
