Growing Up Fit
Growing up Fit is an innovative weight management program for children ages 7-15 and their families. The program consists of an initial health assessment, eight weeks of education and exercise, a post assessment, and graduation celebration. A parent/guardian participates with his/her child(ren). Siblings are encouraged to attend.
Growing up Fit originated as a community based research and service project to evaluate outcomes and feasibility of a family based weight management intervention. Outcomes and community support have been overwhelmingly positive and clinical results have demonstrated the effectiveness of our program. The research associated with Growing up Fit has been published in the Pediatric Physical Therapy Journal, a publication of the American physical therapy association. Over the last five years, nearly 750 families have participated in Growing up Fit.
