Edwards School of Medicine at Marshall University, Huntington, WV Medical Director: Isabel Pino, MD Program Director: Sherrie Fulton, LPN Sampling of Services: CHF's Special Initiatives: Areas Served: Rural communities in southwestern West Virginia. About the Project The West Virginia Children's Health Project (WVCHP) serves permanently housed Appalachian families living in the extremely isolated southwestern region of the state. Many of these families struggle with chronic disease, poor nutrition, high rates of infant mortality and environmentally-based health conditions. Yet, due to extreme isolation and harsh terrain, they also face considerable difficulties accessing health care. Cardiovascular disease at all ages, obesity and asthma are persistent health challenges in the area. The most pressing barriers to health care for patients served by the project are lack of transportation and lack of financial resources. The West Virginia Children's Health Project overcomes these barriers by bringing high quality, comprehensive primary care to remote communities and providing care without regard to ability to pay.

Contact Jackie McClelland for ordering information at 919-515-9148. Active For Life Series Program "Active For Life" is designed as a comprehensive proactive health education program for older adults; however, the main focus of the program is a low-to-moderate-intensity exercise program. The aerobic component of the program is walking. The program was piloted by the West Virginia University Extension Service with 250 adults between the ages of 50 and 95 at 16 locations in both rural and communities. Although its primary component is exercise for flexibility and strength, the program addresses other needs of older adults, such as social, intellectual, related, emotional or spiritual ones. The unique feature of this program is the involvement of peer volunteer leaders. This allows for a greater number of older adults to participate in a community-based preventive health education program. Program materials include a resource guide, an exercise manual, and a video of the program participants in action. Before conducting this program, you must have gone through the inservice training held on May 14, 1997 or have watched the video of that inservice training. After viewing the video, you may ask to be sent all the program materials (Contact Jackie McClelland at 919/515-9148).
