Ohio's Healthy Choices for Healthy Children bill was approved by both chambers of the Ohio Legislature, Thursday, June 3!  Congrats to our partners at The Children's Medical Center of Dayton and many others for helping to make this important legislation happen!

The bill requires healthier options in school cafeterias, and provides for body mass index screenings of students and a pilot program for daily physical activity during the school day.  One in three children in Ohio is overweight or obese. Read more in this Dayton Daily News story.

A copy of the legislation is available in our Be Heard/School Policies section.
