What are the benefits of joining the Collaborative?

Collaborative members will benefit from the support, assistance, and expertise of fellow members. Members will learn about local programs and initiatives and obtain new resources. Meetings will inspire opportunities for new partnerships and revitalize existing bonds, all in an effort to reverse the alarming trends in obesity and related risk factors.

To support collaboration, members will receive monthly email newsletters with information about upcoming events, funding opportunities, current research, and partner program highlights.
