Leading schools and communities on paths to health by creating guidance, support and partnerships.

Cairn /ke(ə)rn/ (noun)

Definition: A mound of rough stones built as a memorial or landmark. A guide on a hiking trail or path

Just as a pile of rough stones guide hikers through the wilderness, we mark clear paths by guiding schools and communities looking to improve health and educational outcomes.

Our mission is to create places of health and well-being where all people are healthy, connected and have the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

We believe that…
The core of a community is how it functions as a collaborative entity to elevate all of its members.

We work to…
Connect and position schools, government entities, non-profits, health systems, and community organizations to enact systems change and evidence-based strategies to advance the dual goals of health and learning.
