The Connecticut Coalition Against Childhood Obesity is dedicated to fighting the obesity epidemic and providing our children with the tools to achieve better health and academic performance. We are Connecticut organizations standing together to make a difference for our children and our state.

We have seen the evidence. We understand that healthier students are better learners. We welcome your interest in learning more, and your support of our efforts to work together to achieve a better future for all of Connecticut’s children.

We held a forum on November 19, 2012 to explore both the factors contributing to childhood obesity and potential actions to address these factors.  See full conference coverage at:
