Our Mission

1,2,3 JUMP is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit Corporation whose mission is to promote health & fitness, foster education, connect families, and motivate communities!

According to the CDC: In the United States, the percentage of children and adolescents affected by obesity has more than tripled since the 1970s. Data from 2015–2016 show that nearly 1 in 5 school-age children and young people aged 6 to 19 years in the United States has obesity.

Many factors contribute to childhood obesity, including:

  • Genetics.

  • Metabolism—how your body changes food and oxygen into energy it can use.

  • Eating and physical activity behaviors.

  • Community and neighborhood design and safety.

  • Short sleep duration.

  • Negative childhood events.

Genetic factors cannot be changed. However, people and places can play a role in helping children achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Changes in the environments where young people spend their time -like homes, schools, and community settings -can make it easier for youths to access nutritious foods and be physically active.
