The Mobilizing Parents for Healthier Environments project
will mobilize parents to create opportunities for healthier
nutrition and physical activity for children in the school
and community to prevent childhood obesity and reduce their
risk for diabetes. Parents will identify common areas
of concern, take the lead in identifying environmental and
policy priorities, and create an action plan for the establishment
of school policies. This project will build on the resources
of an existing community coalition to assist parents carry
out project goals to include the development of a culturally
