Free health education materials offered to teen groups

The Center for Nutrition and Activity Promotion at the Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital, through funding from the Highmark Foundation’s "Highmark Healthy High 5" initiative, is leading a statewide campaign that engages teens in healthy eating and active living. Through the "nrg:Powered by Choice Campaign," teens are empowered to lead changes that create healthier school and community environments. To assist teens in their efforts, the center is offering free materials to teen groups interested in raising money for a healthy change or mentoring younger children to live healthier lives.

Free campaign materials are available to adult advisers who work with teens through school or community groups or clubs (sports teams, student councils, 4H clubs, scouts, etc.).

To find out if your group is eligible to receive these materials, visit http://www.poweredbychoice.org/ online, or contact program manager Rebecca Stametz at rstametz@psu.edu or 717-531-1440 ext. 2.
