Child Health Day

Child Health Day - October 6, 2008: Eat Healthy & Be Active for a Healthy Future

This 80th Child Health Day is the right time for parents, caregivers, teachers, school nurses and all adults who care about kids to address childhood obesity and overweight. Recent studies suggest that 1 in 6 U.S. children between 2 and 19 is overweight, a risk factor for serious health conditions including asthma, diabetes and heart disease.

Visit HRSA’s Child Health Day Web site today and find out how you can help keep this child health problem from growing.
