The Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Branch (NEOPB) is a statewide movement of local, state and national partners collectively working toward improving the health status of low-income Californians through increased fruit and vegetable consumption and daily physical activity. The mission of the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Program is to reduce the prevalence of overweight and obesity in California residents through education and other strategies.
Yolo County Health Services provides nutrition education and obesity prevention services to eligible Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Education (SNAP-Ed) residents in Yolo County.

• Develop and implement the Communities of Excellence Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity Prevention (CX3) plan;
• Partner with the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program to assist local small markets to provide more fruits and vegetables;
