Welcome Health Plan Representatives!

Thank you for bringing the No One Eats Alone® program to the schools in your local community!

No One Eats Alone® Day teaches students how to make friends and create a culture of belonging. This program, sponsored by the Centene Foundation, inspires students to become leaders working to end social isolation and ensure that everyone in their school community feels accepted, respected and valued no matter their differences.

Students will learn how to make new friends through understanding what social isolation is, participating in community building activities, having courageous conversations, and learning how to include those who may be feeling left out.
