About DASH

DASH – Dedicated Action for School Health is a not-for-profit society committed to promoting, supporting and facilitating the creation of healthy school communities in BC. We were the first organization in the province to promote Comprehensive School Health to positively influence the health and learning capacity of all students in all schools across BC. Through our work with numerous cross-sector partners, DASH has facilitated learning, advocacy and the continued practice of delivering healthy school programs.
We are committed to the good health and learning of all students in British Columbia because we know that healthier students learn better and better educated students are healthier.

Mission

DASH collaborates with schools and other partners to create, facilitate and support school communities to be optimal places for health and learning through a Comprehensive School Health approach.

Vision

All students are healthy, engaged, and connected at school and in their communities.

Core Values

  • Collaboration – we believe in the value of working with others to achieve together what may not be possible alone
  • Commitment – we are committed to energize, engage and inspire school communities to improve the health and well-being of all children and youth across BC
  • Excellence – we deliver the highest quality performance and services in all our efforts and endeavours
  • Inclusivity – we believe we are stronger together and embrace inclusion and equity for marginalized, vulnerable groups and all individuals
  • Leadership – we guide, advise and facilitate the creation of positive change in school communities so that all learners have the opportunity to realize their full potential
  • Respect – we respect our stakeholders, funders and all members of the school communities; we respectfully work in partnership with Indigenous peoples to include their diverse and unique values in all of our initiatives.
