Membership Benefits

How does being a member of the Illinois School Health Association benefit me?

  • Networking with other health educators around the state of Illinois for everything from teaching ideas to support when facing a changing climate in education or opposition to comprehensive health education really helps you feel supported. These people have your back and offer a wide scope of resources and supporting documents to help you defend your position if it comes down to it!

  • Attending our Annual Spring Conference with great speakers, ready-made classroom activities, and content updates keeps you informed as a health educator! We also have the occasional fall workshop!

  • Connecting with health educators in other districts can give you an inside scoop into who may be hiring and how you can be introduced to decision makers to advance your career.

  • Talking with people in the field gives you insights into other things going on at the state level that affect your job security and the future of health education! Learn how to get involved in many grassroots efforts to support our profession!

  • Taking part in Blue Ribbon Evaluations allows you to see what other schools are doing in their health classes!

  • Enjoying a plethora of resources, teaching ideas, and news you can use in our quarterly newsletter, Healthlines, keeps your teaching fresh and current.
