Obesity is a chronic disease that drives higher rates of diabetes, heart disease, and other costly conditions, and it disproportionately affects the low-income, minority, and rural communities HECCD was founded to serve. We advocate for equitable access to the full range of evidence-based obesity treatments so that where someone lives or what they earn doesn’t decide whether they can get the care they need and deserve.
Advocacy leaders working together to eliminate barriers to care for obesity and other chronic diseases.
