Welcome to the Childhood Obesity Foundation. We are a Canadian registered charity and a leading Canadian authority on issues related to childhood obesity.

In Canada over 26% of children and youth (1.6 million children) are considered overweight or obese.

This website is dedicated to educating Canadian children, their families and care givers, educators, business and government about the problem of childhood obesity. We hope that everyone can take steps to stop the current epidemic of childhood obesity in Canada.

Obesity prevention is a community responsibility. Please tour our website to find out more about the 5-2-1-0 rule as well as what else families, educators, business and government can do to help prevent childhood obesity.
