Conecting Student Learning with Social Health

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This brief summarizes research in Alabama on the connection between learning outcomes and the neighborhood environment in which students grow up. Our research shows that social health factors—including positive health behaviors, prevalence of social supports, and strong infrastructure—contribute distally to improved learning outcomes. These results suggest that municipal level investments in infrastructure, community health centers, and transportation may also be investments in improved learning outcomes.
