Tackling
childhood obesity |
|
The National School Boards Association
has compiled a resource list to help schools deal with the
problem of childhood obesity.
This epidemic can be addressed by increasing access to healthy
foods and safe places to exercise, both at school and in the
community.
The list includes links to NSBA material along with
information from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, U.S.
Department of Agriculture, Centers for Disease Control and
Action for Healthy Kids.
