A bigger problem is adequate food for poor children. Since Congress passed an agriculture bill without money for food stamps, there will be more hungry children.

Children and all people living in underserved communities are likely to face greater challenges in reversing patterns of inactivity and poor health. The Safe Routes to School National Partnership is very pleased to be partnering with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and American Heart Association on the new Voices for Healthy Kids initiative to reverse childhood obesity by 2015. In this webinar, we will explain our new role leading the Active Places Hub and how we can support you to win campaigns at the state and local level that will increase shared use agreements and street scale improvements. For this webinar, we are also partnering with Active Living Research to present information on increasing physical activity opportunities in underserved communities with a specific focus on reducing disparities and increasing activity in lower-income communities and communities of color.
