THE IDEA AT THE HEART OF IT ALL
Kids ask the questions. Families, schools, and communities help them discover the many connections that shape health.
Meet the Health Elements
FROM THE FRAMEWORK TO A CHILD’S WORLD
The coloring and activity book is the first My World of Health adventure. Maya, Leo, Sam, and Jordan help kids notice how Health Elements show up in familiar places.
On this site, those ideas become stories to explore, connections to discuss, and discoveries to celebrate. A board game is planned as the next chapter.

THE FRAMEWORK THAT INSPIRES THE SERIES
A map of the many building blocks that shape health. Each square names an element; together, they help us see connections and what support might be missing.
Explore each category and its allocated impact on health in DHIT’s framework.
MEDICAL CARE
Access to care, the quality of care, and being heard all matter. Medical Care includes the services, support, and relationships that help kids and families get the care they need.
Wonder together: “What helps our family get care and feel heard?”
Percentages reflect the category allocations in DHIT’s framework, rather than a prediction of any one person’s health. The table is a way to explore connections. It is not a scorecard for a child or family, and no one controls every element.

Health is shaped by our bodies, our daily lives, the people around us, and the opportunities we can access. My World of Health invites families to explore those connections together.
