Body image

05/08/2008

STUDENTS from Upper Yarra Community House will receive funds to promote body image.
The Go for Your Life Positive Body Image HIP HOP project for nutritional and physical health provides up to $5000, particularly for those aged 12-16 years, to counter the media’s unrealistic images of young people.
The students will make use of organic foods and learn about healthy eating from professionals at Eastern Access Community Health.
