Voices of Health Equity: The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA), Health Equity Advancement Leadership (HEAL) Program: Combining National Leadership with Community-Driven Action to Advance

November 13, 2024 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (EST)

Description

Session Description

U.S. health disparities in asthma affect Black, Hispanic, American Indian, and Alaska Native communities. AAFA’s HEAL program provides specialized care, self-management education, and a home environmental assessment to enhance asthma knowledge and confidence. Community-driven programs, like HEAL, can effectively reduce asthma deaths and illnesses. The session will highlight the program development, evaluation, and lessons learned from this community health pilot. The AAFA-Michigan, Chapter’s approach to addressing asthma control by combining nutrition and physical activity opportunities within their program will be explored.

Session Takeaways

CHWs play a pivotal role in improving asthma control among participants.  Addressing SODH needs such as food security necessitates creative approaches and partnerships to comprehensively address asthma-related challenges. Enrollment and program results take time, particularly for adults who may not prioritize asthma care. Patience and flexible funding are crucial, with several months required for engagement. Program evaluation challenges and opportunities will be explored...and more.

Ideal Audience Description

This session is ideal for organizations, providers, and funders interested in partnership with community-based organizations and national organizations to improve health equity.
