Since 2013, Voices for Healthy Kids has funded efforts and supported policy changes to reach kids where they live (in their community), where they learn (at school) and where they play (out-of-school or early care) to give them the best start in life.
Voices for Healthy Kids has contributed funding, technical assistance and strategic direction to over 50 campaigns in 26 states, which has lead to the passage of 14 state or local policies.

- Increasing opportunities for physical activity
