Childhood Obesity

We Can!, developed by the National Institute of Health (NIH), is a national program designed for families and communities to help children maintain a healthy weight. The program focuses on three important behaviors: improved food choices, increased physical activity and reduced screen time. Click on the We Can! Logo to learn more.

Adirondack Wellness Network is working towards making the Tri-Lakes area a succesful We Can! community site.  In addition to handing out free We Can! resources at multiple school functions and the 2008 Saranac Lake Block Pary, we are partnering with Eat Well Play Hard to implement the Catch curriculum in a local after school program and hosting a We Can! Educational Parent Program.

We Can! Parent Program is scheduled for Saturday November 8th. Register today and receive a $25 gas card and possible $40 child care reimbursement!
