Intervention Goals

      Teenagers are very susceptible to gaining weight during their adolescent years.  High school students may face barriers, such as healthy snack choices, within their schools and households. 

      Our intervention is based on the My Plate guidelines. The goals of this intervention include:

1. Introducing My Plate guidelines to help provide insights on healthy eating

2. Improving overall health of adolescents through nutrition intake

3. Helping to reduce obesity among high school students

4. Educate high school students about the dangers of unhealthy eating habits

5. Increasing the awareness about how to read nutrition labels

7. Encourage students to be an advocate for healthy eating
