A group of teenagers in the Southland are launching a Web site designed to raise awareness of obesity. Their target audience
other teens.
Some of those involved in the Web site come from low-income neighborhoods, where fast food outlets are readily available and full-service grocery stores are not as easy to come by.
The site, which works like a social networking site, will focus on nutrition and obesity.
