A brief description of the institution’s formal community partnership to advance sustainability:
MGH Institute of Health Professions and Harvard-Kent Elementary School in Charlestown have created a formal partnership intended to improve pupils’ literacy skills and health while increasing opportunities for MGH Institute graduate students to learn about the needs of elementary school children. Below are some of the programs and activities that we are engaging in.

Summer Reading Program
Big Buddies and Teddy Talks
Partnership with Ruth Sleeper Nursing Center for Clinical Education and Wellness
Faculty from the School of Nursing's Center for Climate Change, Climate Justice, and Health also lead annual Earth-Day-themed workshop for fifth graders from the Harvard-Kent Elementary School. In 2021, students watched a short video on climate change and took part in a group discussion afterward. They then completed a climate-change-focused coloring activity, and heard from several IHP faculty on why climate change is such a crucial topic for their age group to learn and care about.
The partnership with the Harvard- Elementary School addresses the following UN Sustainability Development Goals: 3.4, 4.1, 4.6, 4.7, and 13.3
