At a November 2007 news conference, Ivonne Borrero, mother of
2, describes how the We Can! parents' program has helped her
family learn to eat healthier and be more physically active.
We Can! (Ways to Enhance Children's Activity and Nutrition) is
a science-based national education program developed by NHLBI
to help children ages 8 to 13 stay at a healthy weight by improving
food choices, increasing physical activity, and reducing recreational
screen time. The news conference announced the expansion of We
Can! through a partnership with the Association of Children's
Museums. Additional speakers (pictured, left to right) included
Dr. Elias Zerhouni, NIH Director; Dr. Steven K. Galson, Acting
U.S. Surgeon General; Lou Casagrande, president and CEO of Boston
Children's Museum, which hosted the event. Photo by Les Veilleux
