    Westchester County Department of Health Community Health Assessment Data Update 2015.08 Regional School-Aged Children BMI Profiles 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 School Years In this issue: • Number and Percent of School Aged Children who are overweight, obese, and overweight/obese by grade Project Directors: Jiali Li, Ph.D. Director of Research & Evaluation Planning & Evaluation Renee Recchia, MPH, Acting Deputy Commissioner of Administration Project Staff: Megan Cea, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Stan Cho, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Milagros Venuti, MPA, Assistant Statistician Graphic Design: Megan Cea, MPH Robert P. Astorino, Westchester County Executive Sherlita Amler, MD, Commissioner of Health Foreword The Westchester County Department of Health (WCDH) plays a leading role in promoting health, preventing disease, and prolonging meaningful life for Westchester County residents. WCDH monitors and controls the spread of communicable diseases, monitors and regulates air and water quality, enforces the state and local sanitary code, promotes local public health activities, and assures the availability of community health services. To comply with New York State Public Health Law, WCDH completed a Community Health Assessment (CHA) 2013-2017 in 2013 to describe the health status of Westchester County residents, identify existing gaps and health care barriers, assess the availability and accessibility of health care services, and specify public health priorities in the County. This document is intended to supplement the 2013-2017 CHA with updated regional school BMI information. In order to monitor overweight and obesity status and support the statewide efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic, the New York State Student Weight Status Category Reporting System (SWSCR) was established to collect weight status category data (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or obese, based on BMI-for-age percentile) on children and adolescents attending public school in New York State, outside New York City.
