Nevada Obesity Collaborative Mission

Our mission is to focus on awareness through education on the science of obesity while changing the perception and stigma, formulating a step approach for obesity management, and ultimately reducing obesity across the state as well as the co morbid conditions associated with it. Obesity is a chronic and progressive disease but is often not treated the same as other chronic conditions.

Nevada Workplace Health and Wellness Project

Our primary focus with the Nevada Workplace Health and Wellness is to advocate for a healthier workplace culture, connect employees and employers to resources, and inform them about the benefits of prioritizing health and wellness in the workplace.

Celebrating June with the One Million Steps Challenge

Join our Steps Challenge and help us reach an impressive goal of 1,000,000 steps! Your company and employees are invited to lace up their sneakers and participate in this fun and energizing community contest. Not only will you be contributing to a collective fitness milestone, but you'll also enjoy the camaraderie and motivation that comes from working towards a shared goal.
