Putting the Solution to Work

A number of health-focused events are being hosted for the people of Washington, D.C. and surrounding areas. These include free services like:

  • Community health screenings held right in the Redskins players’ locker room at FedExField.
  • Childhood obesity prevention and health awareness programs that involve participation with other community-focused groups.

Some neighborhoods in Washington, DC report above average childhood obesity rates?1

All of these events involve the community in more proactive health engagement and health maintenance. The programs teach better ways to approach medical care while helping people take the steps to start leading longer and healthier lives.
