Birmingham’s Successful Health Initiative Welcomes Participants
Birmingham, once again showing its commitment to fostering a healthy and vibrant community, is accepting new member applications for the Healthy Happy Kids (HHK) program. Designed to fight the rising issue of childhood obesity, this initiative has already reached over 2,300 students across 24 schools throughout the city and looks forward to an even larger outreach with the recruitment of new members.

The HHK program, an after-school activity, operates in eight-week cycles and equips participants with the necessary knowledge needed to lead healthier lives. Children enrolled in the program are taught how to make simple, nutritious snacks and also engage in regular exercise activities, effectively combining fun and fitness in a conducive learning environment.
Acknowledged Support and Sponsorship
HHK stands proud owing to its noble mission and the support it receives from numerous well-intended quarters. Its primary sponsor is the Young Professionals Board of the UAB Minority Health & Health Equity Research Center (MHERC)
