About Kids Action: Our Mission for a Healthier, Active Oklahoma
Our Mission
Kids Action empowers and educates children in Oklahoma to live healthier, active lives through programs that promote safety, health, and community engagement.
The Challenge
Oklahoma faces serious challenges in child well-being. In 2023, the state ranked 35th in economic well-being, 46th in education, 43rd in health, and 42nd in family and community. Many children struggle with issues like the opioid crisis, inadequate resources, and limited access to safety and education support.
What We Do
Kids Action provides programs for children from Kindergarten to 12th grade, focusing on:
Active lifestyles: Encouraging physical activity through biking events and workshops.
Health and wellness: Promoting healthy habits through fitness, nutrition, and safety education.
Safety education: Teaching essential skills like bike safety and injury prevention.
We create opportunities for children to thrive in safe, supportive environments.
Our Impact
What began as the annual Bikes for Kids event has grown into monthly health and safety initiatives, including:
Family bike rides: Encouraging families to be active together.
Bike maintenance workshops: Teaching bike care and road safety.
Community wellness programs: Partnering with local non-profits to expand our reach.
These programs help kids build confidence, stay active, and adopt lifelong healthy habits.
Why It Matters
Investing in children’s well-being today creates a brighter future for Oklahoma. When children feel safe and supported, they are more likely to succeed and positively impact their communities.
