The Fairfield County
Action for Healthy Kids is
a diverse group of
Fairfield
County residents
concerned about the health of our children; focusing on good nutrition and physical activity. Our coalition strives to view
the whole picture, working with schools and out in the community
to help our kids live healthier lives. We continually welcome new members interested in
the coalition. Please contact Pat Navin, Director of Community Health Development for more information and/or questions.
Coalition
Meetings: Every third Thursday of the month at 3 pm. Meetings held at
the Fairfield Medical Center (2nd Floor, Marketing Department)
Our
goals are to:
- Ensure that meals offered
through all school feeding programs meet federal nutrition
standards; in Ohio we are focusing on the expansion of participating
in the School Breakfast Program.
- Ensure that healthy snacks
and foods are provided in vending machines, school stores and other
venues within the school's control.
- Provide adequate co-curricular
physical activity programs, including fully inclusive intramural
programs and physical activity clubs.
