Check out this great video about the Hispanic Health Council’s (HHC) comprehensive approach to the prevention of childhood obesity, through promoting healthy eating physical activity and access to healthy affordable food.

HHC uses community-based research, evidence-based direct services and policy advocacy to improve the health and well-being of Latinos and other diverse communities.

The video is among the winners from the Let’s Move! Communities on the Move Video Challenge announced recently by First Lady Michelle Obama.
