PHW Certification: Bronze Level

The first and perhaps most important level of PHW Certification is the Bronze Level. Please verify that your congregation has completed the following three activities before applying for PHW Bronze Certification or selecting higher levels of achievement:

  • Identified a health contact person to take the lead on organizing and/or promoting church health programs and to serve as a point of contact for PHW staff
  • Had all buildings designated tobacco-free
  • Begun serving water and healthier food items, including fruits (with no added sugars) and vegetables (not fried), as an option at events

Upon completion of these three activities, please CLICK HERE to submit your information online OR if you think you qualify for a higher level of certification, please review the list of activities required for Silver and Gold and submit your information accordingly.

If you have trouble accessing the online form for Bronze Certification, please contact PHW staff and request to have a copy emailed to you.
