Kid Healthy is a California-based organization focused on improving health, wellness, and nutrition for schoolchildren and their families in underserved communities across Southern California. Its approach relies on culturally appropriate programs designed to measurably boost nutrition and physical activity levels. Founded in 2003, the group’s first initiative, Steps to Healthy Living, became one of the state's largest obesity-prevention campaigns, engaging more than 95,000 participants across four counties. It operates several programs aimed at school settings and family involvement, including Padres en Acción—an early parent-led recess initiative that trains volunteers to support structured, activity-rich lunch recess and is currently active in 33 schools. In 2011, Kid Healthy collaborated with the Healthy Schools Campaign to bring Cooking up Change to California, pairing high school teams with professional chef mentors to redesign school menus; Orange County teams secured top finishes in multiple years. The organization is based in Santa Ana, Southern California, and maintains a small-scale team focused on regional impact.
