UPMC Health Plan is proud to partner with Greater Pittsburgh Council to help young people make good nutrition choices and stay physically fit.The Council initiatedScouting for Healthy Habits & Living as a Good Turn for America program in 2006.
Scouting for Healthy Habits & Living features the distinctive Wellness Badge that can be earned by every Boy Scout registered in the council.
A Wellness Badge Handbook is available to all Boy Scouts, along with accompanying Parent Guides. The handbook includes sections on family health history, forming healthy habits, goals for wellness, and nutritious, easy-to-make camping recipes.
Scouting for Healthy Habits & Living was developed to respond to the growing societal issue of child obesity. Physical fitness always has been a big part of Scouting at all age levels; keeping “physically strong” is an integral component of the Scout Oath.
