Youth Report Card

The U.S. Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth is published alongside dozens of international report cards as part of the Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance Global Matrix. The Global Matrix is an international initiative that brings together report cards on physical activity for children and youth from countries around the world. Each country develops its own report card based on a standardized framework, grading key indicators such as overall activity levels, organized sport participation, active play, active transportation, sedentary behaviors, and community or government support. The Global Matrix compiles and compares these report cards, creating a comprehensive snapshot of global trends in youth physical activity and helping to identify both challenges and best practices across nations.
