Nebraska’s Clinical Childhood Obesity Model FREE To Pre-Order:

Why Prevention? Prevention works when put into practice. Prevention of overweight is critical because long-term outcome data for successful treatment approaches are limited. Pediatrics Vol. 112 No. 2 August 2003, pp The risk of persistence of obesity increases with age. Early physical activity and dietary patterns track into adolescence and correlate with adult obesity. – Pediatric Nutrition Handbook

Without a systematic effort, the health care system response to childhood obesity is likely to be slow, poorly coordinated, and insufficiently effective. The Childhood Obesity Action Network

Mission and Vision The mission of the Childhood Obesity Prevention Project is to mobilize and engage physicians as advocates in their practice, communities and for statewide policies to reduce overweight and obesity in Nebraska children. “We envision physicians mobilized as leaders in our communities across Nebraska finding solutions to the growing epidemic of childhood obesity.”

To carry out its mission, the Childhood Obesity Prevention Project will provide: Education and Clinical Resources Community Outreach Policy Advocacy
