About Me

The HEALTHY TEENS ON THE MOVE Advocacy Committee is made up of youth in the 57th District that have come together with the mission of improving the health of their communities. The teens meet once a month at the Baldwin Park Teen Center to interact with other teens and discuss issues on health and nutrition. All participants are concerned that 60 % of the adult population is considered overweight and that obesity rates have doubled in children and adolescents since 1970. The youth involved believe that the youth can make a difference and have good ideas that adults need to hear. The Teen Advocacy Committee regularly meets in the evening or on Saturday mornings. Through Healthy Teens on the Move, the Teen Advocacy Committee will work with other teens in the community to encourage healthier nutrition and physical activity choices in the community!
