“Our community…Moving and Choosing … to be Healthy” is a school & community based collaboration promoting healthy growth and development and the prevention of child and adolescent obesity. Primary project components address nutrition, healthy eating, physical activity, smoking cessation and the prevention of disordered eating. Still in the piloting stage, a Lead Teacher – Healthy School Network Model is utilized to enable project staff, partners and teachers to work together to build the health promotion capacity of schools and families. Key objectives target building healthy school environments and improving access to high quality curriculum education in nutrition and physical activity. Community partnerships link schools and families to programs which promote active living and increase food security.
