Grant Overview
Ohio's Childhood Obesity Crisis
Ohio faces a significant childhood obesity crisis, with 1 in 5 children aged 2-17 experiencing obesity. The state's rural and urban areas are affected differently, with rural areas experiencing higher rates of obesity due to limited access to healthy food options and physical activity opportunities.
How does this funding address the issue? The nutrition education programs funding aims to reduce childhood obesity in Ohio by supporting schools that implement comprehensive nutrition education programs. Funding will prioritize schools that demonstrate capacity to engage students in hands-on nutrition education activities, including cooking classes and gardening projects.
Nutrition Education in Ohio Schools

Ohio's Nutrition Education Landscape
Ohio's nutrition education landscape is characterized by a mix of school-based and community-based initiatives. Funding will prioritize organizations that demonstrate capacity to integrate nutrition education with existing health and wellness initiatives.
Ohio's unique economic landscape, with its mix of manufacturing and agricultural industries, presents opportunities for innovative nutrition education programs that leverage local food systems.
Considerations for Ohio Nutrition Education Providers

Unlike Michigan, Ohio requires nutrition education programs to incorporate physical activity components to address the state's childhood obesity crisis comprehensively.
