What WKA is Doing

Through extensive research, it has been determined that to truly impact our future we must change the social norm. It is in this vane that Whole Kids Adventure hopes to engage its community.

Since Whole Kids Adventure was organized, we have partnered with many amazing organizations, such as Zero 2, Jolkona, The Texas Round-Up, the American Dietetic Association, Nutritional Wisdom, The American Heart Association, Ferrigno FIT, Southwest Key, nutrition departments, health agencies, public libraries, and many others to offer and/or support programs that will provide helpful resources for families and their children.

Our priority is fighting child obesity, an issue that influences most families in America. Whole Kids Adventure is concerned about the growing obesity epidemic in children, and adults, a trend that will have health and social consequences throughout life.
