At Capital Health, we believe students have the power to inspire one another to live healthier, happier lives. That’s why we launched the Capital Healthy Students PSA Video Contest—an initiative where middle school students produce short public service announcements (PSAs) to share messages of preventative health and wellness with their peers.
Over the years, this contest has grown into a tradition of student leadership, creativity, and impact. Each campaign addresses a timely issue facing young kids today, encouraging students to use their own voices to drive positive change in their schools and communities.
Coming This Fall
The next Capital Healthy Students campaign, Let's Clear the Air: The Truth About Vaping, will challenge students to investigate the facts, separate myth from reality, and explore the health risks associated with vaping through creative, student-produced public service announcement videos.
Additional information, contest rules, resources and entry details will be available at the start of the 2026–2027 school year.
Past Campaigns
Post Positive: Students were challenged to explore the impacts of social media on mental health by creating peer-to-peer video messages promoting kindness, encouragement, and respectful communication.
Wellness Warriors: Students shared creative videos highlighting nutrition, physical activity, and mental health habits that empower their peers to be “warriors” for wellness.
Teens Off Screens: This campaign focused on digital balance, encouraging students to unplug, reconnect with real life, and explore healthier ways to spend their time.
Anti-Vaping: Students tackled the dangers of vaping, using honest and powerful messages to show the risks and encourage healthier choices.
Capital Health is proud to champion our youth as they use their creativity and voices to inspire one another. Through each video, students remind us that positive change starts with them—and together, they’re building a healthier future, one message at a time.
