Childhood obesity rates in America have tripled in the last three decades. Almost one in three children are considered overweight or obese. Pediatricians are now treating children for adult diseases like type II diabetes and hypertension. All parents want the best for their children. They want children to succeed in school, fulfill their dreams, and take this country to new heights. To get them there, parents know children need plenty of healthy food and exercise to help get them ready to learn. But parents know that's often easier said than done. That is why in 2010, Let's Move!, a nationwide initiative with a simple goal: to end childhood obesity within a generation, was launched. To achieve its goal, Let's Move! is working with people from every sector of the society--concerned parents and individuals across this country, businesses and elected officials, faith leaders and educators, doctors and athletes.
