Arizona Obesity Collaborative

Coming together to improve the state of obesity in Arizona

Mission

To collaborate on projects that make meaningful contributions for obesity care in areas of education, insurance coverage, community development and political policy.

Vision

We envision medical, community, insurance and political leaders working together to improve the quality of life for people affected by obesity. We strive for a world free from stigma and bias, where obesity rates are drastically reduced through effective prevention and treatment grounded in evidence based care. By uniting key stakeholders, we aim to create meaningful, lasting change in the state of obesity in Arizona.

How It Works

We are calling for anyone interested to join this effort. We will be coming together to target the four areas outlined in our mission--educational efforts, community improvement, advocacy with employer and payer policies, and political policy. If you have expertise that can contribute to these areas, please consider applying to join. We will divide into workgroups for each of these areas and meet regularly to start planning our advocacy efforts.
