Why now?

Move2Health Equity received a grant from the Virginia Foundation for Healthy Youth to host CATCH for this one time no cost to you or your organization program.

CATCH Training is an integral part of a successful CATCH program. Planning and supporting training is the first step in changing your school or organization's environment and helps maximize the benefits of the CATCH program. Through training, your faculty and staff are given the information and tools they need to begin implementing the CATCH program. Beyond being educational and informative, this hands-on training is fun and encourages communication and teamwork!

What is CATCH?

CATCH (Coordinated Approach To Child Health) programs are a comprehensive and fun approach to Whole Child health that address physical activity, nutrition, stress reduction, vaping prevention, and more. For over 25 years, the CATCH platform has been proven to launch kids and communities toward healthier lifestyles. CATCH is the most cost effective means of preventing childhood obesity, in an environment that's fun and easy to sustain. A variety of programs are offered to suit your organization's needs.
