Description:
Obesity is a major public health issue in the United States with 20 % of children and 40 % of adults obese in 2020, resulting in 150 billion dollars in health care spending annually. Childhood overweight and obesity affects 1 in 4 children ages 2-5 years, the rate of monthly BMI change almost doubled for children 6-10 during the COVID 19 pandemic and the US is expected to have 17 million obese children by 2030.
In Year 5, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) will continue work in 7 areas to improve health centers’ ability to respond to pediatric wellness and weight management in health centers and in their communities. NACHC’s proposal, to Pediatric Weight Management in Community Health Centers includes a package of responses mechanisms:
· Multi State Strategy using evidence- based programs such as Mind, Exercise, Nutrition and Do it (MEND) with new models of virtual curriculum and family engagement.
· A virtual evidence-based curriculum for health centers getting started in pediatric weight management in primary care from ages 0-18 and aligned with the new AAP new guidelines.
· Validation of a progressive childhood obesity metric beyond the BMI from prevention to treatment.
· Partner with CDC to initiate a clinical and community data initiative (CODI 2.0) in North Carolina.
· Use of FHIR technology to scale and spread evidence based pediatric programs such as Bright Bodies.
· An analysis plan to improve further understand anemia and Iron Deficiency screening practices
· A communication strategy to highlight promising practices to disparities of childhood obesity

NACHC Buy in: NACHC will guide and work with HCCNs and their participating health centers through a process to support intervention prioritization, assessment of interventions using an implementation science framework, learning, and best practice sharing. HCCNs and their participating health centers will also have access to virtual peer learning events, experts from the field, and additional training and resources to translate evidence-based and emerging successful strategies into practice.
Goals and Performance Measure:
Case for Change:
Clinical Rationale: Child obesity doubled since quarantine/COVID
Project Approach:
Phase 1 & 2:
Measures of Success? Maybe as an addendum - vs critical success - do we need both?
No learning community - not every project has one - PWM - legacy teams and national series
Intervention Framework: AAP guidelines/CDC (project dependent)

Project Staff Resources Requirements:
HCCN
