Jennifer McAninch of Weare recently joined the American Heart Association staff as New Hampshire’s school engagement director. In her role, she will assist schools throughout the state with implementing the Association’s Kids Heart Challenge and American Heart Challenge programs.
Kids Heart Challenge and American Heart Challenge engage students and their families, providing schools with resources and curriculum aimed to develop happy and healthy children prepared to physically and emotionally achieve in the world.
