The Ohio Action for Healthy Kids team is dedicated to
improving the health and educational performance of Ohio's
children by promoting healthy school environments that
offer sound nutrition and adequate opportunities for
physical activity.
More than 25 state organizations — leaders in child
education, fitness, nutrition and health — collaborate
to address the role schools should play in responding to
Ohio's child health crisis. The Ohio Action for Health
Kids team is dedicated to expanding awareness of the child
health crisis and providing education and resources to
Ohio schools so they are well equipped to address it. |
Three goals guide the Ohio Action for Healthy Kids team's
work to promote healthy school environments that offer
children sound nutrition and opportunities for physical
activity.
 |
Expand Ohio schools' participation in
the USDA School Breakfast Program. |
 |
Ensure healthy snacks and foods are
available in vending machines, school stores
and other venues within the school's control. |
 |
Ensure children have access to quality
co-curricular physical activity programs,
inside and outside the school day. |
