If you’re concerned about childhood obesity in your community, learn how to use the National Institutes of Health’s We Can! (Ways to Enhance Children’s Activity & Nutrition) program to help keep 8- to 13-year-olds at a healthy weight through improved food choices, increased physical activity, and reduced screen time.
Created by the nation’s top medical research agency, We Can! provides families and communities with science-based educational materials and curricula to prevent childhood obesity.
The program is unique in that it can be tailored to fit the needs of individual communities—that’s why in a mere four years, it has blossomed into a national movement of more than 1,150 registered organizations across all 50 states and in 11 other countries.
It doesn’t matter where you work or live. You can register to train and/or become a site today!
