Community Conversation on Leon County's Childhood Obesity Epidemic

This will be community-wide conversation to explore our roles/solutions to a nation-wide epidemic that is arguably the greatest health problem facing our country today, obesity. Each of us, whether we are in business, education, retail food, healthcare, work for a community organization, are members of a faith community, and/or are parents or grandparents has a role to play in this epidemic. We hope this event will stimulate more conversations regarding obesity at the neighborhood level and that these conversations will translate into a greater understanding and relationship building across silos. We hope these relationships and new understandings generated will result in a unified push to prevent obesity. Please join us Monday, April 10th, from 5-5:30 pm we will have a meet and greet with healthy appetizers and snacks and the program will start at 5:30 until 7:30 pm at the Augustus B Turnbull Center (555 W. Pensacola Street). Please register HERE.
