At the core of Action for Healthy Kids is a national network of volunteers helping schools and kids learn to be healthier. Passionate about making healthy change, volunteers are at work across the country. 

Volunteer activities vary greatly, from providing educational information to school superintendents, teachers and parents, to organizing statewide meetings on school health issues for legislators. Our volunteers hold taste tests of new foods and help students be active during recess. As you can see, our volunteers are involved in different ways and at many levels.
