In brief

The SWITCH (School Wellness Integration Targeting Child Health) project is a multi-component intervention designed to support school wellness programming and contribute to youth obesity prevention. Consistent with social-ecological models, SWITCH is designed to reach multiple settings within schools while also facilitating engagement with families and community partners. The program focuses on three distinct behaviors known to impact obesity (i.e., physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB) and fruit and vegetable consumption (FV)) in a creative way by challenging children to "switch what they do, view and chew".
