With a combined membership of over 100,000 healthcare professionals and patient advocates, the Obesity
Care Continuum is dedicated to promoting access to, and coverage of, the continuum of care surrounding the
treatment of overweight and obesity. The OCC also challenges weight bias and stigma oriented policies –
whenever and wherever they occur. The OCC is a coalition of the Obesity Action Coalition (OAC), the Obesity
Society (TOS), the American Dietetic Association (ADA), and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS).
