The Obesity Action Coalition (OAC ) is dedicated to supporting those with obesity and to raising awareness of the obesity epidemic. As part of their mission, this member of the Osteoarthritis Action Alliance provides educational resources on the topics of fighting and preventing 
obesity. One of their many resources is Your Weight Matters Magazine. An article about the link between osteoarthritis and obesity, written by Kirsten Ambrose, OAAA Program Manager, was recently published in the magazine. Her article, titled “Connecting Osteoarthritis and Obesity,” reached the magazine’s readership of over 52,000 people. Check out this great article!
We’d like to thank the OAC for their ongoing interest in the Osteoarthritis Action Alliance and its activities. We greatly appreciate their sharing our weight management brochures with their members and note that by doing so they help raise awareness about the comorbidity of osteoarthritis and obesity.
The OAC is a nonprofit that serves over 1 million individuals with obesity each year. Through their advocacy efforts, the
OAC works to ensure that those with obesity get the respect and support that they deserve. To learn more about the OAC, please visit their website. Be sure to check out their resources! Also, please be sure to visit their social media pages, linked below.
