Resources to Improve After School Physical Activity and Nutrition

A new checklist from After-school Investments serves as a companion to their report, Promoting Physical Activity and Healthy Nutrition in After-school Settings: Strategies for Program Leaders and Policy Makers, which provided frameworks of financing strategies, ideas for after-school programming and additional resources. The new toolkit allows stakeholders to gauge how best to improve childhood nutrition and physical activity and summarizes strategies and resources that can guide discussions and planning around policy and program options.
