Thrive Kids - The student wellness project

Changing the health of a generation begins at school.

At Children’s Hospital New Orleans, we’re bringing health directly to kids at school with innovative school-based programs designed to advance the health and wellbeing of Louisiana’s students.

Working together with schools across Louisiana, our pediatric experts provide the tools, education, inspiration, and expertise to help all kids grow up healthy – and thrive.

ThriveKids, The Student Wellness Project, is a comprehensive community-based program that provides in-school virtual care, mental and behavioral health services, sports medicine, chronic condition management, COVID-19 support, a dedicated nurse hotline for school wellness and virtual care, and education and resources for schools throughout the state.

Children’s Hospital understands that each school is unique and works to best support school partners with a wide range of programs and services, customized based on each school’s specific needs.
