HEALTHY LIVING CHILDREN & YOUTH PROGRAMs

The Healthy Living Children Program services children aged 6-10 years while the Healthy Living Youth Program targets youth ages 11-14 years.

Both programs promote physical health by providing sports and recreational activities to all 7 First Nations communities in the Manitoulin Island District and Espanola area.

Further to promoting physical health, the Healthy Living Children Program also provides healthy cooking sessions, teaching the children basic cooking skills and snack planning/ preparation.

The Healthy Living Youth Program promotes smoking prevention and teaches youth about the differences in traditional versus commercial tobacco.
