the three overall objectives for the institute:

1. apply evidence-based practices to support implementation and sustainability of ps13-1308 required activities in eshe, shs, sse, and policy.
2. implement specific action steps to embed sustainability strategies into professional development (pd) and meeting opportunity held during years 4-5.

sea ignite presentations

the ngos started out the 2016 institute with the opportunity for seas to share their ps13-1308 programmatic successes and opportunities that address sustainability. utilizing the presentation style called ignite, these presentations were designed to be engaging and informative for both the audience and the presenters, all in 5 minutes. not only were the ignite presentations a success in sharing information about things such as forming a youth advisory committee and heling school districts utilize resources for school-based wellness centers; but several states reported that they would use this type of format for presenting information to their own districts after the institute.
