▁School ▁N ut r ition ▁Association , ▁the ▁American ▁C ul inary ▁Federation , ▁Cook ing ▁Mat ters , ▁the ▁United ▁States ▁Department ▁of ▁Agricult ure , ▁the ▁C ul inary ▁Trust , ▁the ▁Part ners hip ▁for ▁a ▁Health ier ▁America , ▁Corn ell ▁University , ▁Philip ▁Lem pert ▁the ▁Super market ▁G uru , ▁the ▁Harvard ▁School ▁of ▁Public ▁Health , ▁the ▁International ▁Corpor ate ▁Che fs ▁Association , ▁and ▁the ▁Food ▁Service ▁Management ▁Institute . ▁ ▁Che fs ▁can ▁sign ▁up ▁to ▁particip ate ▁in ▁the ▁program ▁on ▁the ▁website ▁on ▁the ▁official ▁Che fs ▁Move ▁to ▁School s ▁website ▁to ▁be ▁matched ▁with ▁a ▁school ▁in ▁their ▁area . ▁They ▁can ▁select ▁any ▁or ▁all ▁of ▁what ▁they ▁are ▁interested ▁in : ▁helping ▁to ▁plant ▁a ▁school ▁garden , ▁teaching ▁children ▁about ▁health ier ▁living ▁in ▁the ▁class room , ▁helping ▁officials ▁to ▁develop ▁school ▁l unch ▁menu ▁items , ▁and ▁training ▁students ▁about ▁cul inary ▁skills ▁in ▁the ▁kitchen . ▁On ▁the ▁application , ▁che fs ▁are ▁also ▁asked ▁to ▁provide ▁information ▁about ▁their ▁qual ifications ▁and ▁training . ▁Che fs ▁are ▁asked ▁to ▁specify ▁how ▁many ▁hours ▁they ▁can ▁dev ote ▁to ▁the ▁program ▁and ▁which ▁days ▁of ▁the ▁week ▁they ▁can ▁volunte er . ▁These ▁profiles ▁are ▁matched ▁with ▁other ▁profiles ▁that ▁are ▁created ▁by ▁schools ▁to ▁become ▁an ▁official ▁partners hip . ▁ ▁Once ▁the ▁partners hip ▁is ▁created , ▁Che fs ▁Move ▁to ▁School s ▁provides ▁schools ▁and ▁che fs ▁with ▁resources ▁to ▁help |
▁them ▁get ▁started ▁and ▁to ▁help ▁guide ▁both ▁parties ▁through ▁a ▁successful ▁process . ▁ ▁Business ▁invol vement ▁Private ▁business es ▁have ▁also ▁decided ▁to ▁make ▁changes ▁to ▁improve ▁health y ▁hab its ▁for ▁k ids . ▁For ▁example , ▁Disney ▁now ▁requires ▁that ▁all ▁food s ▁sold ▁and ▁advert ised ▁have ▁to ▁follow ▁nut r itional ▁gu idel ines ▁of ▁increasing ▁fruit ▁and ▁veget able ▁consumption ▁while ▁decre asing ▁cal orie ▁count . ▁Also , ▁Wal gre ens , ▁Super val , ▁and ▁Wal mart ▁have ▁announced ▁building ▁or ▁expand ing ▁stores ▁in ▁areas ▁that ▁have ▁limited ▁access ▁to ▁health y ▁food s . ▁ ▁Phys ical ▁activity ▁ ▁The ▁CD C ▁recomm ends ▁that ▁children ▁eng age ▁in ▁one ▁hour ▁or ▁more ▁of ▁physical ▁activity ▁every ▁day . ▁ ▁It ▁states ▁that ▁children ▁should ▁do ▁three ▁different ▁types ▁of ▁activity : ▁aer ob ic ▁activity , ▁mus cle ▁strength ening , ▁and ▁b one ▁strength ening . ▁ ▁Let ' s ▁Move ! ▁looks ▁to ▁promote ▁physical ▁activity ▁through ▁the ▁support ▁and ▁co operation ▁of ▁families , ▁schools , ▁and ▁communities . ▁ ▁On ▁children , ▁the ▁initi ative ▁states , ▁" Th ose ▁who ▁feel ▁supported ▁by ▁friends ▁and ▁families ▁or ▁are ▁surrounded ▁by ▁others ▁interested ▁in ▁physical ▁activity , ▁are ▁more ▁likely ▁to ▁particip ate ." ▁Let ' s ▁Move ! ▁also ▁provides ▁several ▁gu idel ines ▁for ▁schools ▁to ▁promote ▁physical ▁activity , ▁including ▁strong ▁physical ▁education ▁programs , ▁and ▁indicates ▁the ▁subs id izing ▁of ▁such ▁gu |
idel ines ▁with ▁several ▁government ▁programs . ▁Gu idel ines ▁by ▁which ▁physical ▁activity ▁can ▁be ▁promoted ▁in ▁communities ▁are ▁also ▁out lined ▁on ▁the ▁Let ' s ▁Move ! ▁website . ▁ ▁Imp act ▁evaluation ▁The ▁Center ▁for ▁D ise ase ▁Control ▁publish es ▁ob es ity ▁rates ▁broken ▁down ▁by ▁age ▁group . ▁The ▁report ▁found ▁that ▁between ▁ 2 0 0 9 ▁and ▁ 2 0 1 2 , ▁the ▁ob es ity ▁rate ▁dropped ▁by ▁ 3 . 7 ▁percentage ▁points ▁among ▁children ▁aged ▁ 2 – 5 , ▁dropped ▁by ▁ 0 . 3 ▁points ▁among ▁those ▁aged ▁ 6 – 1 1 , ▁and ▁increased ▁by ▁ 2 . 1 ▁points ▁among ▁those ▁aged ▁ 1 2 – 1 9 . ▁By ▁ 2 0 1 5 , ▁child hood ▁ob es ity ▁rates ▁had ▁not ▁changed ▁much ▁since ▁ 2 0 0 8 ▁but ▁had ▁dropped ▁significantly ▁among ▁the ▁young est ▁children ; ▁the ▁exact ▁impact ▁that ▁Let ' s ▁Move ! ▁has ▁had ▁on ▁these ▁tr ends ▁is ▁uncertain . ▁ ▁A ▁major ▁concern ▁with ▁the ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁program ▁is ▁that ▁it ▁does ▁not ▁evaluate ▁itself , ▁nor ▁is ▁it ▁documented ▁how ▁much ▁money ▁was ▁spent . ▁It ▁allows ▁programs ▁like ▁the ▁Center ▁for ▁D ise ase ▁Control ▁and ▁other ▁independent ▁organizations ▁to ▁evaluate ▁whether ▁or ▁not ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁is ▁making ▁a ▁difference . ▁This ▁causes ▁critics ▁and ▁pro ponents ▁to ▁have ▁a ▁hard ▁time ▁impro ving ▁the ▁program ▁without ▁measurements |
, ▁and ▁the ▁program ▁la cks ▁an ▁understanding ▁of ▁impact . ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁would ▁benefit ▁imm ens ely ▁from ▁putting ▁together ▁its ▁own ▁group ▁to ▁go ▁through ▁steps ▁to ▁evaluate ▁how ▁its ▁program ▁is ▁affect ing ▁the ▁country . ▁It ▁should ▁be ▁evaluated ▁on ▁two ▁major ▁indic ators : ▁increasing ▁health y ▁child hood ▁e ating ▁and ▁increasing ▁child hood ▁physical ▁activity . ▁ ▁Coll abor ation ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁faces ▁a ▁challenge : ▁effective ▁coord ination ▁between ▁all ▁involved ▁ag encies , ▁companies , ▁non - prof its , ▁and ▁levels ▁of ▁government . ▁Dr . ▁Sus anna ▁Campbell , ▁an ▁international ▁relations ▁scholar , ▁and ▁Michael ▁Har nett , ▁an ▁international ▁business ▁professional , ▁conducted ▁research ▁and ▁discussed ▁the ▁bar riers ▁to ▁coord ination , ▁the ▁main ▁concepts ▁of ▁coord ination , ▁and ▁recommend ations ▁for ▁impro ving ▁coord ination . ▁Rod r igo ▁Ser rano ▁also ▁provides ▁insight ▁into ▁creating ▁in cent ive ▁programs ▁to ▁promote ▁coord ination . ▁ ▁Organ izations ▁are ▁so ver eign ▁and ▁the ▁individuals ▁within ▁are ▁account able ▁first ▁to ▁their ▁organization ▁and ▁second ▁to ▁the ▁coord ination ▁effort . ▁Conf lic ts ▁can ▁arise ▁when ▁the ▁goals ▁of ▁the ▁coord ination ▁process ▁don ' t ▁align ▁well ▁with ▁an ▁ag ency ' s ▁main ▁goals . ▁If ▁there ▁is ▁a ▁pressing ▁problem ▁to ▁solve , ▁it ▁acts ▁as ▁its ▁own ▁in cent ive ▁for ▁coord ination ▁as ▁long ▁as ▁the ▁problem ▁involves ▁a ▁possibility ▁to ▁find ▁a ▁coordin ated ▁solution . |
▁Of ▁all ▁the ▁in cent ive ▁programs ▁proposed , ▁an ▁in cent ive ▁system ▁involving ▁recognition ▁may ▁be ▁the ▁most ▁effective ▁and ▁efficient . ▁A gen cies ▁and ▁organizations ▁associated ▁with ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁could ▁receive ▁an ▁award ▁as ▁a ▁result ▁of ▁making ▁a ▁positive ▁impact ▁according ▁to ▁Let ' s ▁Move ' s ▁goals ▁and ▁mission . ▁Organ izations ▁could ▁report ▁their ▁impact ▁to ▁the ▁Task ▁Force , ▁and ▁Mich elle ▁Ob ama ▁could ▁recognize ▁the ▁organizations ▁that ▁engaged ▁the ▁most ▁and ▁had ▁the ▁greatest ▁impact . ▁The ▁award ▁would ▁also ▁help ▁rem ind ▁organizations ▁of ▁the ▁importance ▁of ▁working ▁together ▁to ▁solve ▁the ▁problem ▁of ▁child hood ▁ob es ity . ▁ ▁Let ' s ▁Move ▁could ▁also ▁improve ▁its ▁coord ination ▁process ▁by ▁establish ing ▁clear ▁field ▁officers ▁in ▁each ▁associated ▁organization ▁and ▁have ▁them ▁report ▁to ▁a ▁central ▁authority ▁figure , ▁like ▁the ▁Task ▁Force ▁on ▁Child hood ▁Ob es ity . ▁The ▁improved ▁coord ination ▁process ▁would ▁make ▁sure ▁each ▁organization ▁or ▁ag ency ▁is ▁account able ▁and ▁that ▁there ▁isn ' t ▁overlap ▁or ▁redund ancy ▁ ▁Ac com pl ish ments ▁▁ 5 9 7 ▁museum s ▁and ▁gard ens ▁in ▁all ▁ 5 0 ▁states ▁have ▁signed ▁up ▁to ▁offer ▁active ▁exhib its ▁and ▁health y ▁food ▁choices ▁as ▁part ▁of ▁Let ' s ▁Move ! ▁Museum s ▁and ▁Gard ens . ▁The ▁Department ▁of ▁Def ense ▁updated ▁their ▁nut r itional ▁standards ▁to ▁include ▁more ▁fresh ▁f ruits , ▁veget ables , ▁whole |
