Parents
What is your role?
Parents need opportunities and the means to ask for civic and governmental change. This resource guide was created for parents who voiced concerns about the community’s lack of understanding of school policies.
Teachers
Meet the Fitwits is a twenty-minute presentation guide designed to help teachers talk with students about simple health terms, health consequences from a poor diet, and correct portion amounts. This guide is designed to help teachers discuss and to provide tips and questions to engage students in learning about their health.
Physicians
The Fitwits are helping doctors and their patients discuss a healthy weight, fitness, and recommended eating habits. Office tools have been designed to help doctors talk with 9- to 12-year-olds and their families during well child care visits. We are in the first round of beta testing Fitwits MD. Our team is tracking and observing use with 35 of our outpatient residents and faculty to evaluate effectiveness.
