Community Wellness: Comprehensive City-School Strategies to Reduce Childhood Obesity

The American Association of School Administrators has been working with the National League of Cities in six communities to develop strong school-city partnerships to combat childhood obesity. "Community Wellness: Comprehensive City-School Strategies to Reduce Childhood Obesity," focuses on lessons learned by school superintendents and city leaders who formed and sustained local collaborations to reduce obesity. It also explores how collaborations were able to leverage federally mandated school wellness policies to develop community-wide wellness plans.
