GOAL Family

GOAL (Get Onboard Active Living) is a family-focused, community approach to encouraging healthy lifestyles for kids and their families through nutrition, physical activity, and other health behavior education and coaching.

Our signature GOAL program, GOAL Family, provides a fun environment for families to learn about these topics and engage in interactive demonstrations, activities, and games together! At our weekly sessions, we’ll start with games and physical activity followed by an interactive lesson about nutrition, mental health, or other health behavior topics like setting goals or healthy sleep habits. These lessons will include hands-on demonstrations, discussions, activities, and often a taste test or healthy snack!

Any family with kids ages 7-17 is welcome to participate! We can provide free childcare if some kids in the family are under age 7.

The program meets once a week for 8 weeks, and families participate in each session together. We also offer a second night of programming each week that is physical activity and games only, and you can join these sessions online from home!

Our goals for this program are that families have fun, learn new information about their health, develop skills and confidence in making healthy choices, feel supported in making changes they decide are best for their family, build a more positive self-image, and grow closer together as a family.

We currently offer this program in Bloomington, IN and Jasper, IN. If you are interested in joining our next round of programming, please see the information below! You are welcome to reach out to our staff anytime with any questions that you have.
