Help Power the Movement to Prevent Childhood Obesity!

Childhood obesity poses real and serious health risks to our kids. Today, more than 23 million children and adolescents in the United States -- nearly one in three young people -- are either obese or overweight, putting them at higher risk for serious, even life-threatening health problems.

For real change to happen, we need to change the root causes of childhood obesity. It's going to take a movement to change schools, to change communities, and to change national policies.

There's hope. PreventObesity.net is building a national network to power the movement to prevent childhood obesity. Whether it's joining a local parents' group to get healthier food choices available in nearby schools or supporting a large organization for a national day of action, you can play a part in this movement.

This is just the beginning. Join today and help us power the movement to prevent childhood obesity!
