DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored by Increased physical activity among 
 children helps create life long healthy habits that prevent obesity. Child
 ren's participation in regular physical activity is associated with improv
 ed cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health\, better mental health and em
 otional wellbeing\, and chronic disease prevention. There also is substant
 ial evidence showing that physically fit children perform better in the cl
 assroom. Despite the overwhelming evidence that physical activity is benef
 icial\, however\, more than half of U.S. children and adolescents are not 
 getting enough physical activity. \n\nAfter-school programs could potenti
 ally provide up to 30 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity ea
 ch day\, satisfying half of the national recommendation for daily physical
  activity. However\, much work remains to be done to create more consisten
 t policies and implement activity programs that are evidence-based. Furthe
 rmore\, there needs to be efforts to monitor progress toward meeting polic
 ies and holding programs accountable.\n\nCo-sponsored by Active Living Res
 earch\, a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation\, this We
 b Forum will provide recommendations for how programs and policies can bet
 ter support physical activity in after-school settings and provide example
 s from national and local efforts. Speakers will share success stories fro
 m the YMCA-the largest provider of after-school programs in the nation- an
 d discuss lessons learned from initiatives that successfully increase chil
 dren's physical activity levels. Speakers will also briefly explore how to
  promote physical activity during summertime and other academic break peri
 ods.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPRESENTERS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichael W. Beets - As
