Program Description

The Five & Fit Program is an intergenerational health and fitness program.

Seniors encourage children to:

-Make healthy food choices.
-Get regular exercise.
-Engage in healthy behavior such as regular bedtimes and mealtimes.

The aim of the Five & Fit Program is to provide early intervention to prevent childhood obesity with the help, influence and wisdom of seniors.

Another important part of the Five & Fit Program is that parents will receive the proper mentoring, skills and tools to prevent childhood obesity long after kids complete the program.
