Mission
SMART (School Health Model for Academics Reaching All and Transforming Lives) is an educational solution, architected by Ginn Group Collaborative (GGC), that focuses on breaking the cycle of poverty and improving the trajectory of lives by supporting academic achievement through onsite SMART Centers. The SMART Model delivers a comprehensive, system-wide strategy for education-driven health services. The SMART approach not only increases the health, success, and overall well-being of individuals; it reaches families and school staff, positively impacting entire communities. With the SMART Models growth and level of success in addressing system gaps and structural barriers to health equity, SMART has expanded and adapted to a serve additional population cohorts through new partnerships including charter schools, adult learners, and senior tower residents.
