The 2007 Kids Being Healthy EXPO© will take place May 10-12 at the Baltimore Convention Center.
KIDS Being Healthy EXPO© is an educational conference and exposition designed to focus on CHILDHOOD OBESITY, it's causes and most importantly what can be done to help correct this nationwide problem.
Childhood obesity is an epidemic occurring in boys and girls in every state in our Union. It is headline news daily, but why is it affecting our nation's youth to such a dangerous degree and at such an alarming rate?
The increasing prevalence of childhood obesity throughout the United States has led policy makers to rank it as a critical public health threat. The prevention of childhood obesity in children and youth should be a national health priority!
Volumes have been written on what policy changes need to be made. Recommendations are continually forthcoming on how we should change our infrastructure to create a healthier environment for not only children but adults as well.
KIDS Being Healthy EXPO© will address the problem of childhood obesity from a grassroots perspective.
