What is it?

The Lompoc Valley Healthy Kids Initiative (LVHKI) was created in response to the growing problem of obesity and physical inactivity in our community.

What will the LVHKI do?

It will help the kids and families of Lompoc start living a healthier lifestyle!

 

How?

  • By teaming up with local health professionals to provide info and education to the kids and their families on healthy living.

  • By working with community partners such as the Lompoc Unified School District, Police Department, Fire Department, Chamber of Commerce, Lompoc Hospital, YMCA, and the Boys and Girls Club to provide opportunities for kids and adults to get involved in fun, active, healthy events.

How does this affect me?

Being overweight and not exercising is really bad for your health, but it is also really expensive! Studies show that healthier people live longer, have a better quality of life, are sick less often - and spend less money on healthcare cost every year. It pays to be healthy!
