An Evening That Belongs to You
This isn’t a typical awards ceremony. This is a celebration of every voice that refused to be silenced, every story that changed a mind, and every advocate who stood up when it mattered most.
“When community leads, the world listens.”
The United Nations and World Health Organization have recognized our collective commitment to compassionate, evidence-based, stigma-free approaches to obesity care, and the power of community behind it.
This evening is our thank you. Come celebrate this milestone with us.
