CATCH in Chicago Public Schools
A Successful Partnership
Given the tremendous health and wellness needs in the district and CATCH’s unique alignment with the Healthy CPS program, CATCH looks forward to continuing to expand on our partnership and work to date in Chicago’s public schools.
In addition to delivering CATCH’s evidence-based Whole Child programs, our team members are well positioned to help guide CPS educators toward attainment of full Healthy CPS status in the areas of Healthy Environments, Health Leadership and Health Instruction through a variety of activities and one-on-one mentorship.
Currently, CATCH has a waitlist of more than 25 CPS schools who have indicated their interest in bringing CATCH to their campus. With the right partnerships in place, CATCH is poised to make an even bigger impact on the health and wellness of underserved kids in Chicago through our continued involvement in the district.
Investment with Impact
As a nonprofit organization, CATCH is committed to our mission to invest in the health and wellness of CPS students into the future. To truly scale this impact across the district, however, we need partners who are willing and able to help us meet this investment.
Currently, we are seeking to collaborate with foundations, corporate sponsors and donors who have an interest in Chicago and a mandate to make a difference in the lives of the city’s underserved youth.
