Our Goal: To reduce the prevalence of obesity through improved clinical care and support for obesity research funding.
The global obesity epidemic is on the rise, and endocrinologists are at the forefront of diagnosing its underlying causes and prescribing treatment plans. The Endocrine Society works to reduce the prevalence of obesity, identify policy options to address obesity, and advocate for access to affordable care. Learn more about the science of obesity and the obesity epidemic, by visiting the Obesity Topics page or reading our 2022 Thematic Issue on Obesity. Explore all of our obesity-related resources and initiatives at Focus on Obesity.
We are proud to champion Obesity Care Week #OCW2022 to raise awareness about obesity. The Treat and Reduce Obesity Act (TROA) would take steps to give people with obesity access to the care they need.
We rely on your voice to advocate for our policy priorities. Join us to show our strength as a community that cares about endocrinology. Contact your U.S representatives or European Members of Parliament through our online platform. Take action and make a difference today.
