Percent of programs meeting pre-defined success indicators for healthy snack, beverage, and physical activity practices. This figure depicts the percentage of all enrichment (n = 562) and sports (n = 136) programs meeting specified evidence-based criteria for healthy snack, beverage, and physical activity practices, as well as the percentage meeting two of the three and all three sets of criteria. Snack success was defined as either: (1) providing fresh or processed fruits/vegetables to the group at all or most meetings and salty and sweet snacks at no or only some meetings, (2) providing fresh/processed fruits/vegetables at some meetings and salty/sweet snacks at no meetings, or (3) not serving a snack. Beverage success was defined as: (1) providing water to the group at all or most meetings and never providing sugar-sweetened beverages, or (2) having water brought by individual children at all or most meetings and sugar-sweetened beverages brought at no or only some meetings; if programs had both group-provided and individually-provided beverages, both of these conditions needed to be met to receive credit for beverage success. Physical activity success was defined as: offering opportunities for physical activity at most or every meeting time, with physical activity opportunities lasting more than 15 min when offered in enrichment programs and more than 45 min in sports programs
