Medium

The Alliance for a Healthier Generation – a partnership between the American Heart Association and the William J. Clinton Foundation – works to combat one of the nation’s leading health threats, childhood obesity. The goal of the Alliance for a Healthier Generation is to reduce the nationwide prevalence of childhood obesity by 2015, and to empower kids nationwide to make healthy lifestyle choices. The Alliance works to positively affect the places that can make a difference to a child’s health: homes, schools, doctor’s offices and communities.

Long

Nearly one in three kids or teens in the United States is overweight or obese. Over the past 20 years, childhood obesity rates have doubled and are now at epidemic rates. Our young people are facing life-threatening health conditions, a lessened quality of life and will inherit higher healthcare costs. If current trends continue, today’s kids could be the first generation to live shorter lives than their parents.

To combat this growing epidemic, the American Heart Association and the William J. Clinton Foundation partnered in May 2005 to create the Alliance for a Healthier Generation. The goal of the Alliance is to reduce the nationwide prevalence of childhood obesity by 2015, and to empower kids nationwide to make healthy lifestyle choices. Because childhood obesity has no single cause, there is not a single solution. Thus, the Alliance works to positively affect the places that can make a difference to a child’s health: homes, schools, doctor’s offices and communities.
