Dept. of Health | | Agency: Physical Activity, Nutrition, and Obesity ; Health Promotion ; Community and Family Health ; Health | | Date Published: 2010 | | Pages: 92 p. | | Description: The Utah Nutrition and Physical Activity plan 2010 to 2020 was developed under the direction of the Utah Department of Health Physical Activity, Nutrition and Obesity (PANO) program and is a 10-year action plan to reduce the burden of chronic diseases, such as obesity, in Utah through nutrition and physical activity efforts. The purpose of the plan is to provide goals and strategies for government, media, communities, health care providers, schools, and worksites that will impact overweight and obesity in Utah. Partners representing many organizations, including local health departments, and other disciplines participated in creating the goals and strategies found in the plan. Public and private partners will utilize the plan for statewide planning, development, and implementation of physical activity and nutrition interventions. This plan presents opportunities to develop policies and modify our environment to enable Utah residents to lead healthier lives. The plan provides Utahns with a range of opportunities for action. The development of this plan demonstrates that working together to address the burden of chronic disease and obesity are the first steps toward combating this problem in Utah. | | External Link: http://www.health.utah.gov/obesity/documents/Utah%20Nutrition%20and%20Physical%20Activity%20Plan.pdf | | External Link 2: http://health.utah.gov/obesity/pages/Obesity/Resources_and_Publications.php | | Identifier: http://utah.ptfs.com/awweb/guest.jsp?smd=1&cl=all_lib&lb_document_id=31126 | | Show Metadata | | Metadata Record |

Dept. of Health | | Agency: Multicultural Health ; Community and Family Health ; Health Promotion ; Health | | Date Published: 2010 | | Pages: 120 p. | | Description: Utah Health Status by Race and Ethnicity portrays important "health disparities" by race and ethnicity. Disparities exist when the health status on a given measure in one or more racial/ethnic populations is different from that found statewide. It is a national goal of the U.S. Public Health Service to eliminate health disparities, including those by race and ethnicity. The authors believe that this report will serve as a guide for Utah Department of Health (UDOH) programs and others with an interest in reducing health disparities, so that they may make evidence-based decisions on their priorities and future activities aimed at improving health status in Utah populations. | | External Link: http://health.utah.gov/cmh/data/healthstatus.pdf | | External Link 2: http://health.utah.gov/cmh/ | | Identifier: http://utah.ptfs.com/awweb/guest.jsp?smd=1&cl=all_lib&lb_document_id=31497 | | Show Metadata | | Metadata Record |
