KidFit Health and Wellness Clinic

Trillium Health Partners believes that early investment in children’s health can greatly improve long-term health and well-being. We established the KidFit Health and Wellness Clinic in direct response to Peel Region’s above average child obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) rates, and with the generous support from the Medavie Health Foundation and the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care.

The KidFit Health and Wellness Clinic is a two-year health and wellness program. Our focus is on supporting families to develop positive, sustainable health behaviours. We are not a weight loss clinic. We celebrate body diversity and honour differences in size, age, race, ethnicity, dis/ability, sexual orientation, religion, class, and other human attributes. A Paediatric Endocrinologist, Registered Nurse, Social Worker, Dietitian and Activity Specialist support the program. Families are scheduled into group sessions and individual appointments throughout the two-year program. Please discuss the program commitment outlined below before referring families to KidFit.

The program will consist of pre-scheduled group sessions and individual appointments

GROUP

Families attend 2 phases focused on parenting skills and nutrition.

Each phase consists of 8-weekly sessions (on a weekday evening).

MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS

ALLIED APPOINTMENTS
