Description:Early Assessment of Programs and Policies to Prevent Childhood Obesity is a 2-year project to identify and assess local-level programs and policies that have been implemented with apparent success to prevent obesity by improving the eating habits and physical activity levels of children aged 3 to 17 years. In each year of the project, a systematic search process identified programs and policies, and then an expert panel suggested further exploration of the most promising programs and policies. Priority was given to programs and policies that addressed low-income populations and ethnic groups with disproportionate childhood obesity.
