Bodyworks Training Workshop

BodyWorks, a health education program designed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health, provides parents and caregivers of young adolescents with tools to help improve family eating and activity habits. This interactive train-the-trainer workshop will provide the tools to educate parents as role models and provide them with skills to make small, specific behavior changes to help family members prevent obesity and maintain a healthy weight. Once you are trained you can order the BodyWorks materials free of charge to use with families or other trainers. The toolkit includes a video on healthy shopping and cooking strategies, a recipe book, food and fitness journals, and more. Training conducted by Capital District Physicians' Health Plan staff.
