UNFORTUNATELY, TOO MANY PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY ARE SUFFERING FROM A HEALTH AND OBESITY CRISIS THAT IS CAUSING UNNECESSARY HARM AND COSTING OUR STATE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN PREVENTABLE HEALTH CARE COSTS. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT BY INVESTING IN THE HEALTH OF OUR NEIGHBORS NOW, WE CAN STOP ILLNESSES BEFORE THEY START, AND THE SAVINGS QUICKLY ADD UP IN OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH: * IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE * FEWER ILLNESSES * INCREASED SCHOOL PERFORMANCE * HEALTHY AGING * A BETTER WORKFORCE HOW?

ELIMINATING HEALTH DISPARITIES STUDIES SHOW THAT INDIVIDUALS WITH THE LOWEST INCOMES ARE 44% MORE LIKELY TO BECOME OBESE COMPARED TO HOUSEHOLDS WITH HIGHER INCOMES. IN ADDITION, SOME MINORITY GROUPS OR PEOPLE LIVING IN CERTAIN UNDER-SERVED COMMUNITIES HAVE MUCH HIGHER RATES OF OBESITY AS WELL AS OTHER PAINFUL AND DEBILITATING HEALTH CONDITIONS. THROUGH ITS FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AND COMMITMENT TO MAINTAINING A PRESENCE IN ALL PARTS OF OUR COMMUNITY, WE ADDRESS THESE HEALTH DISPARITIES AND ELIMINATE THE LINK BETWEEN AN INDIVIDUAL'S SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS AND THEIR HEALTH.
