NCIDC Obesity Prevention and Reduction Project

This project will produce four issues of a quarterly newsletter, targeted at the staff of local Indian Tribes and agencies. This newsletter will be available both in PDF format on the web, as well as distributed in printed format to Indian Tribes and agencies throughout California. The Active NDN will focus on activities, resources and information which can be incorporated into your operations to further the goal of obesity reduction and prevention in Indian youth, as well as related food, nutrition and health issues.

In addition to this quarterly newsletter, NCIDC will provide some “generic” newsletter articles for you to include in your own communication with clients/members. These articles will target American Indian youth and their families, explaining healthful activities and eating patterns in an interesting and fun way. The articles are available for download and will be provided in MS Word format for use by any Tribe or Indian organization served by this program. You may add these articles to your own newsletters, modify the content as you see fit and distribute to your local population.
