As a healthcare provider, people value your advice more than any other source. You can strongly influence the choices of children and families. If you know a child, or the parent of a child, who has been identified by a school Body Mass Index screening* as “at risk” for being overweight, how you approach the situation is very important. The crucial role you play by helping these children make healthier lifestyle choices in their lives right now can prevent them from developing into adults with even greater health risks.
We need your expertise to help families find quality local resources to help them to learn the importance of good nutrition and physical activity.
