"Hydrate Philly is a multi-component intervention that includes water safety testing, provision of 1-2 hydration stations per recreation center, distribution of reusable water bottles for youth, a campaign to promote the acceptability of tap water, and the reduction of access to competing unhealthy beverages through vending machine standards and discouraging black bags (characteristic small, black, plastic bags provided to customers with their corner store purchases, typically including a sugar sweetened beverage and/or unhealthy snack foods)."
