Children’s Food Environment State Indicator Report, 2011
This report highlights selected behaviors, environments, and policies that affect childhood obesity through support of healthy eating.
The current childhood obesity epidemic is the result of many factors and may not be resolved by any single action. Rather, resolution of the childhood obesity epidemic will require concerted action across many sectors and settings such as child care facilities, communities, and schools. The 2011 Children’s Food Environment State Indicator Report highlights selected behaviors, environments, and policies that affect childhood obesity through support of healthy eating. These indicators represent opportunities for action. Specific action steps and resources are detailed in the National Action Guide at http://www.cdc.gov/obesity/.
