Since 1991, the Health Education Council (HEC) has existed to address the significant gaps and burden of preventable disease among our regions most vulnerable communities. Understanding that the majority of health happens outside of the doctors office and that social, economic and environmental factors shape our ability to make healthy choices for ourselves and our families, HEC works across sectors to address the foundational determinants of health and ultimately to prevent the chronic diseases associated with tobacco use, poor nutrition and lack of physical activity. Over the past fiscal year, our work has spanned the following concentration areas:Healthy Eating and Active LivingSafe NeighborhoodsTobacco ControlDescription of ProgramsLower-income families face barriers to eating healthy, being active, quitting tobacco products and getting preventive health screenings. Intersecting issues such as violence, mental health, housing, and economic stability among others, impact the communities we serve. Driven by this knowledge, the Health Education Council works to promote health where it happens- where residents work, live, pray, play, shop, learn and grow old. Each of HECs programs is an innovative and visionary response to the needs of the communities we serve. The following is an outline of the programs that were active during fiscal year 2016:Healthy Eating and Active Living ProgramsTraining Resource Center Delta and Gold Country Service Area- The Health Education Council is the host of the Delta and Gold Country service area Training Resource Center (TRC) for the California Department of Public Healths (CDPH) Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Branch (NEOPB).
