Led by the Nevada Institute of Children’s Research and Policy, the workgroup is a coalition of individuals and organizations from across the state of Nevada who are committed to reducing rates of childhood obesity by promoting education and outreach, providing supports to early childhood providers and ensuring that appropriate resources are available to assist children and families in making healthy choices.
