An Approach to Reduce Chronic Disease Burden in a High-Risk Population by Addressing the Community's Social Determinants of Health: A Faith Formula Initiative - 1 in every 4 deaths in the United States is due to heart disease (https://www.cdc.gov/dhdsp/). Preventable risk factors such as being overweight and obesity, poor nutrition, and lack of physical activity often lead to chronic disease such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. These chronic diseases disproportionally affect African Americans. African Americans are also more likely to experience chronic disease at younger ages and therefore are more likely to experience death at earlier ages. Most current policies focus on reducing health disparities by improving access to medical care. However, access to medical care must also be linked to the environmental, economic and social constructs in which an individual lives. Reducing health disparities and promoting health equity involves intentionally addressing the social determinants of health. Defined as a complex integration of an individual’s social, physical and economic environment along with personal characteristics and behaviors--the social determinants of health largely influence one’s morbidity and mortality. The total population of Dallas County is over 2.5 million. This proposal’s target population includes 180,237 residents of 6 high risk zip codes (75224, 75232, 75233, 75237, 75216, 75241). Our target population is 57.5% African American and 31.1% Hispanic with 11.5% of residents being over 65 years old. 25% of residents living within the protocol’s targeted population are living below the federal poverty threshold. This proposal’s target population is high priority given their vulnerability to health disparities due to lack of health insurance and medical providers in the area. These high-risk zip codes are classified as a food dessert with limited opportunities for nutritious foods such as: fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and low fat dairy. A community assessment performed in the last 5 years of this targeted population also reveals a limited access to physical activity resources with less than 5 public parks with walking trails. Faith Formula desires to inspire optimal health by making investments in the ‘total’ person by expanding access to medical care and addressing one’s social determinants of health. We seek to understand the community in which our patients live and what collaboration is needed between healthcare and environmental enhancements that are supported by the community. As recipients of the 2018 REACH program funding we will increase opportunities for physical activity through the development of a pedestrian trail, healthy nutrition resources through education and a food pantry, and strengthen our community coalition by referring community participants to economic, educational, and social resources.
