Steps for Kids was tested in a developmentally-delayed adolescent (ages 10-18) residential group home. Obesity among the clients is a major concern for the pediatrician, neurologist and child psychiatrist who consult to the group home. The pediatrician, Dr. Lawrence Krupa, reported an average 25% weight loss among the students. Students were enthusiastic about learning how to take better care of themselves and the program was deemed a success by all.
