[Jog] Fwd: Turnoff Week

[Jennifer L YOUNG]

Hello,
 


Turnoff Week is happening April 20-26, 2009.  TV Turnoff Week has been modified to include videos and computers - hence the name change to Turnoff Week. 
 
We have the opportunity to promote Turnoff Week with materials that you may order free of charge:
 
Get Active Be Healthybrochure is produced by Kaiser Permanente, and also attached as a pdf.  There is no date on this brochure so that you may also use it year-round.  Kaiser Permanente has produced many materials and resources supporting this effort, which may be accessed at www.kp.org/tvturnoff  
 
Get Active Be Healthyposter/flier has the date of Turnoff Week.  Attached as a pdf.
 
 You Have the Power: 5 Steps to Guide Your Child's TV Time which targets parents of preschool-aged children.  It is a one-page flyer printed in English on one side and Spanish on the other, produced by the Nutrition Council of Oregon.  There is no date on this flyer so it may also be used year round.  It is attached as a pdf.
 
Bookmarks.  These have the Turnoff Week date April 20-26 printed on them.
 
If your organization would like to receive any of these materials to share with families and community partners let me know by March 31st.  Please identify the quantity of the materials wanted by sending an email to robin.w.stanton at state.or.us.  We will ship them to you within the first 2 weeks of April.
 
More information about Turnoff Week can be found at the Center for Screen-Time Awareness website:  www.screentime.org ( http://www.screentime.org/ )
 
Please let me know if you have any questions.
 
Sincerely,
