SUMMARY:Exploring Obesity’s Impact on Women and Policy’s Role in Improving Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Check out presenter slides from the event here.  \n  \nObesity is a significant public health issue in the United States\, affecting millions of Americans and costing billions of dollars in health care expenses. Women are disproportionately affected by the obesity epidemic\, both in terms of their health outcomes and the economic costs of the disease. There are also notable racial and economic disparities associated with obesity. \nDuring this congressional briefing\, panelists explore the disproportionate impact of obesity on women\, including obesity risk factors that are unique to women\, the unique challenges faced by women\, particularly from marginalized communities\, and how federal policies could play a role in improving health outcomes. \n*This event is widely attended and relevant to official duties.
