Dear Colleagues,

Below please find information on an upcoming webinar which will be very useful to you as you work to expand the availability and accessibility of arthritis appropriate, evidence-based interventions (AAEBIs). The webinar, "Value of Lifestyle Management Programs for Improving the Health and Well-being of Older Americans during Covid-19 and Beyond," will describe the basis for evidence-based programs approved by the HHS Administration for Community Living and provide examples of a community agency and state health department that are engaged in collaboratives to provide AAEBIs, and the challenges associated with pivoting to telehealth delivery during a pandemic. This webinar is being sponsored by the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE).

Webinar Description:  Arthritis-appropriate, evidence-based interventions (AAEBIs) such as chronic disease self-management programs and physical activity programs, have been shown to decrease arthritis and disability and improve quality of life. More efforts are needed, however, to expand their availability in states and local communities. This webinar will describe the basis for evidence-based programs approved by the HHS Administration for Community Living and provide examples of a community agency and state health department that are engaged in collaboratives to provide AAEBIs, and the challenges to pivoting to telehealth delivery during a pandemic.

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  *   Identify at least four lifestyle management programs for older Americans that align with their state/local health mission, values, and goals.
  *   Describe first steps for integrating an evidence-based program into their health department based on the needs of the priority population.
We look forward to your participation!
