Abstract:intervention sites. No improvements were observed in children's BMI. These results indicate that the youth advocacy can contribute toward creating environments that support healthy snacking within rural schools and food stores, which in turn can improve children's snacking behaviors, but that further interventions are needed to change children's BMI.
