For nearly 40 years, the Delaware School Health Advisory Committee (SHAC) has been improving school health education and school health services in the state. The SHAC has recommended policies to the Delaware Board of Education and the state legislature, conducted conferences and workshops, and published brochures, studies, resource guides, curricula, and pamphlets. The key to SHAC success has been its diverse membership and the cooperation it engendered in the state.
