LCHAY's mission is to prevent childhood obesity and related diseases, in Lane County

"If you want to go fast walk alone,
if you want to go far walk together."
--Ethiopian Proverb

Our projects and policy advocacy align with our three focus areas:

Physical Activity
     Increase amount of time children and adolescents spend being active
Nutrition
     Improve access to healthful foods & decrease consumption of energy-dense, high sugar and high fat foods
Screen Time
     Reduce the amount of time kids spend on passive activities such as watching TV, video games and computers
