While the nation faces a serious obesity epidemic, adults with disabilities are 58 percent more likely to be obese than their non-disabled peers.* People with disabilities face unique challenges to maintaining a healthy weight, including physical limitations, inaccessible fitness activities, and limited healthy eating choices and exercise options. Local health departments (LHDs) can enhance existing programs for health promotion by expanding to include people with disabilities. The LHD selected for this grant will partner with local stakeholders to provide an evidence-based training curriculum to people with disabilities in the community. The selected LHD will be asked to monitor short-term outcomes for attendees, as well as to provide a comprehensive review with lessons learned and tools for distribution to other LHDs. This initiative is funded by the National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
