Devastating Effects of Being
Overweight
The devastating
effects of being overweight on
our children’s physical,
mental, and emotional health are
frightening. BACTK is an
established medically managed
family-based program devoted to
helping children and teens with
weight problems.
Healthy Eating and
Activity
The primary goal of
a lifestyle based program is
healthy eating and activity that
is realistic and achievable in
today’s world, not the
achievement of ideal body

Skills for Changing Behavior
To this end, we
emphasize the skills necessary to
change behavior and to maintain
healthy changes that will result
in life long physical, mental,
and emotional health.
