evaluation of their approach to prevent
childhood obesity. The supplement of
an additional year of funding will allow
the recipient to collect and analyze data
on state projects that will be
implemented this year and evaluate the
collective impact of the Children’s
Healthy Weight CoIIN on maternal and
child health outcomes, helping to
