Your feedback will help shape the strategies and activities included in the California Obesity Prevention Implementation and Evaluation Plan.
Webinar Objectives1. Provide a background for CDC Cooperative Agreement.
2. Provide an overview of two strategies in the Health Care Insurer and Provider sector.
3. Determine what COPP activities are most important to key stakeholders.
4. Solicit recommendations for modification or removal of existing COPP activities
5. Determine gaps in the COPP implementation plan
6. Identify key partners or potential key partners to implement COPP activities
Obtaining Your Comments “COPP Webinar Additional Comments”
Worksheet
Covers the same questions asked today in the webinar.
Gives you time to think about the strategies and activities, if desired and provide feedback later.

Early stages May be similar to each other –
consolidation will occur based on comments
Exact wording has not been finalized
Evaluation Plan Progress on the CDC workplan Progress on the California Obesity Prevention
Plan Develop indicators, measures, and milestones
for progress on decreasing obesity prevalence in California:

4) What partners should be involved?
We will take verbal or written comments.
1. COPP Strategy: Promote PREVENTION as the first step in responding to the obesity epidemic in a manner sensitive to culture, age, and abilities (rather than bariatric surgery and pharmaceuticals that are interventions of last resort, particularly for children).
2. Proposed New Strategy: Increase workforce capacity and competence for obesity prevention and weight management.
Two Strategies:
1. COPP Strategy: Promote PREVENTION as the first step in responding to the obesity epidemic in a manner sensitive to culture, age, and abilities (rather than bariatric surgery and pharmaceuticals that are interventions of last resort, particularly for children).
