Description
The Oklahoma Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) Healthy Incentive Grant program supports healthy environments for Oklahoma students, teachers and staff. It incentivizes public school districts to establish wellness committees, adopt comprehensive tobacco-free and wellness policies, and promote approved TSET-funded healthy-lifestyle and tobacco-cessation brands. Awards support one project addressing school health needs.
Supported work includes cafeteria equipment, hydration stations, playground improvements, physical education equipment, walking trails, school gardens, health assessment equipment and emergency-response equipment. District funding is based on enrollment. Individual school sites have a separate funding track, available in FY27 only when their district received a Healthy Incentive Grant in FY26. District awards are first come, first served among applications meeting all requirements, subject to available funds and TSET Board approval.
