Grant Overview
Iowa's Targeted Rural Health Outcomes
Healthy living workshops in rural Iowa aim for 15% BMI reductions in participants, addressing the state's 42% adult obesity ratehighest in the Heartlandversus 32% urban. In 77 non-metro counties covering 60% of 3.2 million residents, CDC data shows 20% diabetes prevalence.
These outcomes matter amid Iowa's ag economy ($30B output), where sedentary farming lifestyles contribute to $1.1B annual health costs. Rural Northwest Iowa's 55+ median age amplifies needs.
Implementation via Iowa Department of Public Health partnerships, using covered bridges for venues in 99 counties.
