CATCH® KIDS CLUB

Marcia Davis Taylor, President/CEO, recently attended training for CATCH® Kids Club.  As a result of attending the training, she is now certified to implement the CATCH® Kids Club in an afterschool setting, as well as train staff to work in the program.

CATCH® (Coordinated Approach to Child Health) is an evidence-based, coordinated school health program designed to promote physical activity and healthy food choices. The CATCH® Programs – CATCH® Kids Club for Afterschool, CATCH® Early Childhood, and CATCH® for Schools – cover kids from preschool through 8th grade and have been implemented in thousands of schools and after-school programs across the United States and Canada.

By teaching children that eating healthy and being physically active every day can be fun, the CATCH® Program has proven that establishing healthy habits in childhood can promote behavior changes that can last a lifetime.
