In 2004 a kit addressing a very timely and important topic — childhood obesity — was produced for The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE), Division of Food and Nutrition. The kit, entitled Childhood Overweight and Obesity: Parents Can Make a Difference, was developed by Project PA, and consisted of a VHS tape, a DVD video, and print materials.
Copies of this kit were distributed to Pennsylvania superintendents, business managers, school board presidents, school foodservice directors, PTA presidents and Cooperative Extension educator.
