Curriculum Available on Nutrition, Fitness, and Well Being
The Arizona Department of Health and Nutrition Services, in collaboration with Maricopa County Head Start, has developed a curriculum which focuses on nutrition, fitness, and well-being for parents, children, and staff (Parent and Child Centers). Maricopa County Head Start has incorporated this curriculum in order to enhance parent, child, and staff wellness through activities which are designed to encourage all to enjoy and live healthier life-styles.
Ms. Della Benjamin, the Wellness Coordinator of Maricopa County, Arizona, would like to offer the curriculum free of charge to individuals who contact the office. Head Start centers may have as many copies as they need for their classrooms and/or home-based programs. Feedback on the curriculum would be appreciated but not required.
