How will we measure campaign success? What are realistic returns on investment? Do we have the capacity to implement it?

After tobacco, obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death in our country. Childhood obesity has tripled in the past 30 years. More than 1 out of 4 Virginia youth are overweight or obese. About the Issue

The CDC recommends that youth get at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day. 4 in 5 youth fail to meet this standard. The CDC recommends that youth get at least 60 minutes of physical activity each day. 4 in 5 youth fail to meet this standard.

Physical education is not a requirement in the Virginia public school system. Experts estimate that fewer than 10% of K-5 schools provide 30 minutes of PE per day. Youth spend half of their day in school. Shouldn’t at least half of their physical activity take place in school? About the Issue

Objectives: 1.Increase awareness of the importance of physical education in schools. 2.Increase support for physical education in elementary and middle schools. 3.Implement a minimum of 30 minutes of physical education each day in Virginia schools. About the Campaign
