HCAT Arlington\u2019s goal is to reduce childhood obesity in Arlington through nutrition education, increased physical activity, and addressing food security. We lead a broad coalition of partners who have a stake in reducing childhood obesity in our community.

data-color=\"1e73be\">\n\t\tThe HCAT High Five for February goes to Wakefield High School staff and teachers. With the substance abuse issues and lock downs that occurred earlier this month, the staff, teachers, have been put under enormous strain to not only do their job to teach students but also to contend with real life and death issues within the schools and help students and themselves process those realities. While many of these issues, especially substance abuse, are present at all the high schools, Wakefield has had to contend with theirs in a more public way. We send our appreciation and support to Wakefield this month. \u2764\ufe0f\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t<span class=\"cff-expand\">&#8230; <button type=\"button\" class=\"cff-readmore\" aria-expanded=\"false\"
