Healthy Weight for Kids

The ADA Foundation is committed to promoting a healthy today and tomorrow for our children. Public education through foundation, community and corporate partners is the first step.  The Healthy Weight for Kids Initiative was launched to support public education projects and programs that address the national health concern of obesity among our children.

Since the launch of the Healthy Weight for Kids Initiative in October 2001, the ADA and the ADAF have partnered with organizations and individuals to develop several programs in the childhood nutrition arena.
