WELCOME

Evidence shows that child weight-management programs are more effective when the whole family is involved and committed to adopting healthier habits. ​As part of our REACH program, we contract with the Muskegon YMCA to provide their "Healthy Weight and Your Child" program to our communities. 

 

Healthy Weight and Your Child is a 15-week evidence-based weight management program to reclaim your family’s health through healthier eating habits and an active lifestyle. This program is designed with the whole family in mind, engaging a child and adult in education, healthy eating, and physical activity to elicit positive change and help families learn skills to live a healthier lifestyle long-term.

 

Program Overview:
This program is free and open to the public. Discover ways to eat healthy as a family, learn and engage in games to play together that are active and fun, and practice problem solving skills to form healthy habits.
