Welcome to SNAP - a hands-on initiative for middle schools that's designed to help keep students in school and learning by improving overall health through promoting clean hands. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that handwashing is the most important thing you can do to keep from getting sick (CDC, http://www.cdc.gov/cleanhands). Schools can use the SNAP program to increase student and staff hand cleaning and help them stay healthy.

SNAP offers a FREE educational poster-toolkit that Makes it easy to incorporate clean-hands education into middle school curricula. Fosters teamwork. Provides new ideas that support national education standards. Plus…It gives student teams a chance to gain national recognition!

First piloted in 2003, in more than 40 states and Canada, now thousands of schools and hundreds of thousands of students have used the SNAP Toolkit to improve hand hygiene in their schools. Over the last seven years, 21 schools have earned national recognition and cash awards totaling over $29,000! Will your school earn top recognition next year? Get your school involved by downloading the SNAP Toolkit today.
