Nutrition and Physical Activity
Our Nutrition and Physical Activity Program leads our state’s efforts to:
- Increase access to nutritious and culturally affirming foods
- Help increase food sovereignty for tribal nations in Wisconsin
- Increase access to safe spaces to move one's body
- Increase access to safe spaces to active transportation methods
- Increase continuity of care for breastfeeding people
- Increase access to high quality early care and education programming
Our program works with partners to prevent obesity and chronic disease throughout the state. We developed the Wisconsin Physical Activity and Nutrition Road Map, P-03170 (PDF). This guide supports community efforts to create healthier places and spaces that center equity and promote good health.
Chronic Disease Prevention Program
The Nutrition and Physical Activity Program is part of our larger effort to prevent chronic diseases. We coordinate with other partners to make a greater impact. Partners include other state agencies, key statewide organizations, and local coalitions.
We provide resources and materials that can be used locally in a variety of settings to help people and communities eat nutritious and culturally affirming foods and move their bodies.
