Health Equity: Cultural Humility and the National DPP

Competency: Diversity and Inclusion

Training Length: 90 minutes

 A person’s culture plays a significant role in their beliefs about health and lifestyle behaviors such as food choices and physical activity. These factors can influence someone’s ability to effectively participate in programs like the National DPP. In this webinar, Lifestyle Coaches will explore the ways in which one’s culture can help or hinder their engagement and progress in the lifestyle change program. Facilitators and panelists will discuss appropriate adaptations to recruitment and program delivery based on an understanding of the diversity of cultures being served by the organization.
