Widgets
You can place this embeddable map widget on your website or blog to show the network of individuals working to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic in America. The map allows visitors to your web site to view the network nationwide or zoom into neighborhoods to find contacts in their own backyard. Anyone who signs up to "put themselves on the map" through your site will be added to the map on both your site and every other site that has embedded the map.
If you have registered as a Network Leader you can customize the map widget to make it more focused on your own organizing efforts. You can brand it with your own logo and tagline. You can also have the map display only those individuals who are working on your specific issues within the childhood obesity movement. Once the map widget has been embedded on your site, you can download the names and contact info for people who signed up for the network through your map widget, as well as those who signed up through the map on another site.
This interactive widget allows visitors to you site to learn about the historical rise in the obesity rate to its current epidemic level. They can then see the economic and health impact of obesity if the rate keeps going up or if we can start getting it to go down. After using the widget they'll be able to sign up to learn more about ways they can get involved in working to solve the childhood obesity epidemic from leaders that are part of PreventObesity.net.
