Extractions: Description In Hawaii, collaboration is the key ingredient for improving the lives of young children. By bringing together programs, policymakers, and parents, the Good Beginnings Alliance is improving the education and care of Hawaii's youngest children. The initiative has four essential components: Good Beginnings Councils (GBCs) History and Development The roots of Good Beginnings run long and deep. The seeds of the initiative were planted over 20 years ago when the work of Dr. Calvin Sia on "medical homes," or comprehensive health services for children, shed light on the critical interconnection between the physical, social, and emotional health of children. This understanding eventually led public- and private-sector leaders to embrace the concept of a comprehensive early childhood education and care system for young children in Hawaii. In the 1990s, early childhood efforts that had long and parallel histories converged and evolved into a statewide early childhood initiative.

Extractions: Between 1987 and 2000, obesity reached epidemic proportions in the United States, with more than 45 million adults classified as obese. In Colorado, adult obesity (body mass index [BMI] 30) rates increased from 6.9% in 1990 to 14.9% in 2001; the prevalence of overweight (BMI 25) among adults also rose from 36.7% to 51.6% during those years. Evidence That Prevention Works Research has demonstrated that preventive measures such as improved nutrition, tobacco cessation, increased physical activity, and early detection and intervention may prevent heart disease, stroke, and other chronic diseases. Physical activity helps to control weight; contributes to healthy bones, muscles, and joints; reduces falls among the elderly; helps to relieve the pain of arthritis; reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression; and is associated with fewer hospitalizations, physician visits, and medications. Program Example Through a partnership with the University of Colorado Health Sciences, the Colorado Physical Activity and Nutrition Program is implementing two community interventions in Peetz, Colorado, which has a large rural population, and in the Denver Metro Black Churches, which allows program coordinators to work in an already established urban and African American setting to reach high-risk populations. These interventions focus on a physical activity component to encourage participants to walk 2,000 steps a day more than they walked before the program. Pedometers are offered to assist participants in their efforts. Additional worksites and community sites throughout the state are also participating. The intervention will introduce a nutrition component as well, most likely promoting a 5 A Day campaign. The program has been named
