Healthy Together Helps Families Build a Healthier Future
Helping Families Build Healthy Lifestyles Together
To further its mission to promote health and wellness across the Hill Country, Create Healthy offers Healthy Together through the Create Healthy Wellness Center.
The free health education and behavior change program helps children and their families address habits that can contribute to childhood obesity and chronic disease. Through nutrition education, exercise, and family participation, Healthy Together gives families guidance they can use at home.
Based on evidence-based curriculum from the Healthy Weight Partnership and the American Council on Exercise, the program is led by a registered dietitian and designed for children ages 7–11 and their caregivers.
