Located in Springfield, Virginia, Jumpin' Jills is designed to reverse childhood obesity by promoting fitness, nutrition, and wellness among adolescent girls. The project will serve 12 girls, ages 10-13, who are overweight, or at risk of becoming overweight. The program monitors participants for a year after the 12-week program ends. Program elements include exercise through a walking club, education sessions, weekly nutrition and fitness monitoring and support, and field trips as rewards.
