Get Fit, Get Right

Coming Soon!

Launching in 2007, Get Fit, Get Right is an interactive web-based intervention that leverages current technology and youth-friendly programming to help overweight teens and those at risk for being overweight learn to incrementally adopt healthier behaviors that are sustainable over time. The program targets youth ages 13-18 and will feature a faux "reality show" format to deliver peer-to-peer content from six overweight teens, an online coaching feature to monitor and encourage physical activity, and an online community to provide peer support.

A key feature of the program will be streamed video of teens participating in physical activities such as hip hop dance classes and personal training sessions - and personal stories from teens for teens. Also, nutrition and physical activity resources such as articles and tips will be accessible across the website.
