The 2009 Southern Obesity Summit convened 16 southern states to:
•Reinforce efforts of committed southern practitioner teams.
•Connect peer obesity prevention leaders to promote, coordinate, and sustain prevention activities.
•Share examples of successful implementation strategies.
•Promote partnerships so obesity prevention efforts can be evaluated and a body of knowledge built nationally.
•Develop strategies for informing and encouraging policy makers to develop regional strategies for reducing obesity rates
