Join ArCOP as a Partner Organization
The Arkansas Coalition for Obesity Prevention is an alliance of government agencies, nonprofit organizations, private businesses, and membership organizations working towards improving the health of Arkansas communities by increasing physical activity and healthy eating to reduce and prevent obesity.
While there are no formal requirements made of Coalition Partners, they may encourage their staff/members to attend Coalition meetings and participate on Work Teams, collaborate on research, assist with funding streams for projects like Growing Healthy Communities, or more – the sky’s the limit!

How does your organization/business/agency become a Partner?
How does an individual get involved in ArCOP?
Do I need to work at/be a member of a Coalition Partner to join the Coalition myself?
Not at all – but we do hope that you will tell your organization/business/agency about us!
