Mandate
Active Healthy Kids Canada is a national not-for-profit organization established in 1994 with a mission to inspire the country to engage all children and youth in physical activity. We provide expertise and direction to policy-makers and the public on how to increase physical activity for Canadian children and youth, and effectively allocate resources and attention to the issue. Our vision is to create a nation of active healthy kids.
Advancing knowledge is the cornerstone of our business. Our primary method is the annual Active Healthy Kids Canada Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth. Through strategic partnerships with funders, governments, non-government organizations, research groups and others, we produce Canada’s most comprehensive yearly assessment of physical activity opportunities for Canadian children and youth.
The knowledge that Active Healthy Kids Canada shares through its Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth (Report Card) has helped issue stakeholders to build better policies, programs and campaigns that increase physical activity opportunities for Canadian young people.
