As a way of meeting people where they are, a CHAP Health Ambassador Program was created to deliver educational and interactive sessions to organizations within Fulton and DeKalb Counties.
With a focus on healthy lifestyles, a certified personal trainer helps raise awareness around obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. The FDHA’s CHAP Health Ambassador is equipped to deliver educational materials to community members, from youth to seniors. The program has delivered positive results and the Health Ambassador has been a successful connection between the community and health care providers, a vital asset to underserved populations. It is through the use of social support, that CHAP Health Ambassadors provide culturally appropriate interventions to promote and restore health, ultimately preventing disease.
