THE
CHALLENGE
Across New Jersey, people are getting
sick and literally dying from obesity-related conditions.
The problem is particularly acute in children. Recent
studies link childhood obesity to a disturbing prediction:
the current generation of children in America may have
shorter life expectancies than their parents.
Additionally, Americans are spending billions each year
on obesity-related illnesses. If we do not work to reduce
obesity among both children and adults in New Jersey,
we will face a crisis of epidemic proportions.
THE
SOLUTION
The ultimate goal of the Mayor’s
Wellness Campaign is to improve health and the quality
of life, while reducing the skyrocketing health care costs
that are associated with obesity. Through this website
you can access information about local health related
events, nutrition and form your own fitness groups.
Join us as we strive to promote healthy
living in Mount Olive!
