One in six American children is overweight. In Los Angeles County, the problem is even worse with nearly one in three children being overweight. Overweight children tend to become overweight adults.

The purpose of this project is to offer a treatment project to families of overweight children. The treatment of overweight children involves the entire family and includes making health eating choices and being physically active.
