SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Functioning as a federal advisory committee,
the Council is governed by the provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA). FACA stipulates that the charter for a federal
advisory committee must be renewed every two years. The most recent
Executive Order 14048, dated September 30, 2021, provides for the work
of the Council to include a focus on expanding national awareness of
the importance of mental health as it pertains to physical fitness and
nutrition. To reflect the changes to the Council's scope under
Executive Order 14048, the Charter has been amended and renewed.
The Council is charged with advising the President, through the
Secretary of Health and Human Services (Secretary), concerning progress
made in carrying out the provisions of Executive Order 13265, as
amended, as further amended by Executive Order 14048, which aims to
expand and encourage youth sports participation and to promote the
overall physical fitness, health, and nutrition of all Americans. The
Council promotes this goal through external outreach, raising public
awareness, and recommending to the President, through the Secretary,
actions to accelerate such progress. Executive Order 14048 directs the
Secretary to carry out the responsibilities for public health and human
services, and to continue to promulgate a national strategy (the
National Youth Sports Strategy) to expand children's participation in
youth sports, encourage regular physical activity, including active
play, and promote good nutrition for all Americans. Executive Order
14048 also directs the Secretary to expand national awareness of the
importance of mental health as it pertains to physical fitness and
nutrition and to share information about the positive effects of
physical activity on mental health, particularly as it relates to
children and adolescents, to combat the negative mental health impacts
of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
