Childcare Food & Activitity Environments:

School Food & Activitity Environments: Schools have immense potential in affecting children’s health throughout their lifetime by serving as a model environment for promoting and supporting healthy eating and activity behaviors.
After-School Food & Activitity Environments: After-school activities are opportunities for children to develop positive lifestyle behaviors and to foster healthy eating and activity patterns.
Neighborhood Food & Activitity Environments: The design and resources available in local neighborhoods greatly influence our daily eating and activity patterns.
Workplace Food & Activitity Environments: Workplace environments, where many adults spend a significant portion of their time, introduce and reinforce positive eating and activity behaviors to employees and visitors alike.
Health Care Food & Activitity Environments: Through its clinical practices, facilities management, and advocacy efforts, healthcare has the opportunity to influence solutions to poor nutrition- and inactivity-related chronic diseases.
Government Food & Activitity Environments: Government plays a key role in influencing eating and activity behaviors through its own facilities, policy development, regulation, and funding practices, and can set the standard for other industries and organizations to follow.
