WHO WE ARE
EatMoveGrow (EMG) is a federally funded grant program that offers a wide variety of engaging programs to children, families and schools in rural, underserved elementary schools and communities across Southeast Louisiana. Our primary mission is to close health gaps and create opportunities that promote stronger health environments for children.
WHAT WE DO
EatMoveGrow is actively involved in obesity prevention work specific to Delta parishes. We assist schools in forming School Wellness Committees that drive policy changes to support healthy living while conducting ongoing research to progress movement opportunities. Our passionate Coordinators play an active role in providing and teaching lessons for students to learn and apply healthy habits.
EMG serves schools in rural areas throughout the Delta Parishes. Our four coordinators work diligently in our EatMoveGrow schools to provide children with a healthy learning environment and to provide faculty and staff with the necessary resources to impact positive and healthy changes in the classroom, the lunchroom and on the playground.
