Helping to build environments that promote healthy eating and increase physical activity in children through research and outreach.

Children today are eating more and moving less.  Although we're now in the midst of an obesity epidemic, there is a solution.  However, the solution is complex and requires change at many levels.  We're working toward change at the community, home, school, after school and individual levels through our research and dissemination efforts.
