Health Care Crisis/ Epidemic

California is facing an urgent health crisis! Nearly 60 percent of all Californians are overweight or obese and more than 30 percent of California’s children are at-risk of becoming obese. 

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 weight. 


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.
