The
OrganWise Guys Comprehensive School Program (OWG CSP)
is a multi-media, dynamic, interactive, cross-curricular
program that uses fun characters based on the organs of the
body (such as Hardy Heart; Peri Stolic, the large intestine;
and Sir Rebrum, the brain), coupled with high energy
activities, to teach children how to make positive health,
nutrition, and physical activity choices. The OWG CSP
thematically integrates an evidence-based set of
interventions including nutrition and healthy lifestyle
educational curricula focusing on core principles of healthy
living (high fiber, low fat, lots of water, exercise) and
eating (nutrient-dense foods), nutritious dietary offerings
in school cafeterias (and other feeding institutions,
particularly those that participate in the USDA feeding and
nutrition education programs) that model classroom-based and
parent nutrition education programming, increased physical
activity, and other school-based projects, in a
proven-effective manner. Using a collaborative approach that
engages schools, United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) nutrition education programs, University/County
Extension, Area Health Education Centers, and other
community-based organizations and programs, OWG CSP
engages schools as “laboratories of obesity prevention”
through community-wide efforts. |
