Northern Indiana Hispanic Health Coalition

The Healthy Hearts program uses lectures and hands-on activities during six weeks of sessions. The program aims to prevent childhood obesity by empowering students with the knowledge needed to make healthier decisions and to become role models to their own families as stewards of good health.

Por tu Familia is the adult version of Healthy Hearts. It was developed to teach adults about the heart and the importance of healthy nutrition and exercise, specifically adults whose children are participating in Healthy Hearts. Some of the topics developed include: how the heart works, how sugar and fat can either be enemies or allies of our health, and how exercise can be fun.
