Community Involvement

Nemours Health and Prevention Services (NHPS) supports communities in transforming the culture and environment in ways that provide opportunities for children and families to make healthy lifestyle choices.

One of the ways we accomplish this is through collaboration with community-based organizations and coalitions focused on child health promotion. Our community partners play a key role in helping us spread the 5-2-1-Almost None message to children throughout Delaware.

Promoting Healthy Eating and Physical Activity: 5-2-1-Almost None

Healthy habits start early, and 5-2-1-Almost None is an easy way to remember the basics about healthy eating and physical activity.

• Eating at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day,
• Watching two or fewer hours of screen time a day,
• Getting one or more hours of physical activity a day,
• And drinking almost no sugary beverages.
