About Us
Community-wide strategies include releasing a "Food Fight" educational campaign and creating an initiative to enhance infrastructure to support bicycling and walking. School-based strategies will increase student input in food and beverage choices and use student-grown produce. The project is also implementing strategies that focus on neighborhoods in need by improving community policing to create safe places to walk, connecting neighborhoods to walking trails, and implementing "Healthy in a Hurry" corner stores to increase the availability of healthy foods in undeserved neighborhoods.

Learn More About CDC’s “Healthy Schools” Initiative
Research shows that when students eat healthy and are more physically active, they do better in school. With the help of CDC, communities nationwide are putting this research into practice, year-round.
Learn more about what communities are doing to help schools become places where students not only learn about the importance of eating healthier and being more physically active but, in fact, eat healthier and move more.
