Hoelscher DM et al. – The reduction of child obesity levels observed in the El Paso area is one of the few examples of effective programs and policies based on a population–wide survey: in this region, a local foundation funded extensive regional implementation of community programs for obesity prevention. Results emphasize the need for sustained school, community, and policy efforts, and that these efforts can result in decreases in child obesity at the population level.
