- In communication with Congress, Executive Branch and the media, the AOA stresses the rising rates of obesity among the Nation’s children and adolescents.
- The AOA has pushed for a federal Human Physical Activity Impact statement, similar to the national Environmental Impact Statement so that communities and policy-makers can evaluate the impact of public projects on physical activity in communities.
- The AOA’s agenda for research stresses prevention and the roles of the school in nutrition education and physical activity.
