Hi. My name is Khloe Wilcox and I was a final candidate in the 2024 Connecticut’s Kid Governor election. I am now a member of the Kid Governor’s Cabinet working with 2025 Kid Governor Keudy Martinez.
My platform addresses Healthy Eating. I chose this issue because a lot of kids don’t eat healthy enough. What you eat is important because it can affect your health and your energy.
My three-point platform is to:
- Encourage 5th graders to advocate for better lunches with school leaders.
- Give 5th graders strategies for eating healthier with input from pediatricians and mental health providers.
- Put up flyers in schools that advocate for healthier eating.
Since the Statewide Election, I have taken on the goal of eating healthier myself. If you like my platform, you can encourage other people to eat healthier or even try eating healthier yourself.
It would be wonderful to hear how you’re making a difference around Healthy Eating in your own community! Email Khloe@CT.KidGovenor.org to tell me about it!
