The National Association of Hispanic Nurses (NAHN) Muevete USA™ Project is a NAHN educational program developed to reduce childhood and adolescent obesity in selected locations throughout the United States. While Latino/Hispanic children are the focus, the program is open to all children regardless of ethnic background.

Muevete USA™ was inspired by First Lady's Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign.

Funded in 2011, 2012 and 2013 by generous grants from the Coca-Cola Foundation, NAHN started the project as a pilot in 2011 with five Chapters in four U.S. states. Past NAHN President Norma Martinez-Rogers, PhD, RN, FAAN was the Project Director.

The full-implementation of this projects started in 2012 and it is now in place in fifteen locations. It has also extended participation to not only children, but also their parents, custodians and relatives. NAHN's Immediate Past President Angie Millan, MSN, RNP, CNS, FAAN has been the 2012 and 2013 Project Director.

The project uses a Train-the-Trainer approach and features five lesson plans on the USDA My Plate,the importance of exercise, how to read food Labels, choosing healthy snack options, and the lifestyle changes needed to improve self-esteem, body-image, and empower the participants.
