The Effect of Living in a Healthful School and Community

Title

I. Introduction:

Below are effects of living in a healthful school and community:

1. People will expect to live longer

because of healthier life style and
climate. The city has less noise due to
easier housing and transportation.
Youth are engaging in a healthier mind-
set that decreases depression, anxiety
and stress.

5.Students will get stable

employment and they
definitely have prospects in
their own communities.

2. Group participants prefer

to perform more projects
when they are well.

4. The community economy

is stable and plentiful.
3. Because the government and
residents have sound insurance
services, children, moms and citizens
have access to health opportunities
 A healthy community is not only about making its people healthy physically,
but also about having a strong and rich atmosphere in terms of way of life and
access to their services. There are programs that resolve health issues. Residents
have healthy, tidy houses. The method of travel is simpler and more modern
relative to other cultures. The unemployment rate is low and the standard of
education is high.
As such, a healthy community is one in which all people have access to
quality schooling, clean and healthy housing, appropriate work, transportation,
physical activity and wellbeing, in addition to quality health care. Unhealthy
cultures contribute to infectious illnesses, such as cancer, diabetes, and heart
disease.
