We have worked with several Senior Centers that have congregate meals, and plat tc expand these nutrition classes to other seniors. This year we have completed the series of our classes at two sites, and have two additional sites scheduled for early fall. During the 2000-2001 year we would complete the series of four classes at three additional Senior Centers. As another way to provide nutrition education, we also plan to move the kiosk with the touch screen computer monitor and the La Cocina Saludable computer program to Senior Centers throughout the county. We have also worked very hard at making inroads into the Jesus Rodarte Cultural Center. a facility used primarily by the Hispanic population. We have started offering one class a month on a nutrition/ health topic to a group of seniors on Friday. and plan to continue these during, the next year if the continuation funding is received. As noted in the Six-month Progress Report, the walking program has been a complete. bust. In its place, we are using grant funds to provide scholarships for the initial senior exercise classes coordinated by Aims Community College at Hill 'N Park Senior Center in Greeley, and Governor's Farm in Windsor. We hope that once residents at these locations are "addicted' to the exercise classes, they will be willing to pay the fee, or fill out the paperwork to qualify for lee waivers. These will start in September. In the continuation year of funding, we will again work with the Aims Community College Senior Program coordinator to identify another new location for introductory adult exercise classes. One possible site is Ft. Lupton which is in the process of constructing a new Community Center. We will also use the funding to continue the collaboration of the Weld County Diabetes Coalition. This has included outreach in the community through Health Fairs, response to individual requests, and monthly meetings to share information and coordinate activities CSIJ Extension employees are active members of the Coalition. This year we had a presentation≤ about the diabetes information classes held in eastern Colorado and the Dining with Diabetes curriculum. Currently the CSI I FSNLP staff member is planning to pilot the Dining with Diabetes classes at Sunrise Community Health Center this fall. Because of FSNFP funding guidelines, these classes must be limited to low income individuals If the Nutrition and Exercise Grant funding is received for the second year, the project coordinators, both registered dietitians, will present the Dining With Diabetes classes to the general public. This would be in cooperation with the Diabetes Disease Management Program (formerly Wellness Services) at North Colorado Medical Center. Initial discussion is to offer the series of three classes in November, 2000 during National Diabetes Month, and again in March, 2001, National Screening for Diabetes. After learning about Operation Frontline at the grantee's meeting in June, we returned to Greeley and were delighted to learn that CSU Extension staff members were already at work to bring the program to Greeley. We are helping recruit participants for the first series of classes in August. Since Operation Frontline is fully funded by Share Our Strength, the Nutrition and Exercise grant would assist by supplying child care during the classes. Collaboration These agencies will continue as collaborators in the Nutrition and Fitness Grant: Department of Human Services/Weld County Area Agency on Aging Colorado State University Cooperative Extension Program/ Weld County Jesus Rodarte Cultural Center/Greeley Recreation Center/Parks and Recreation Department Aims Community College/Senior Adult Education Program There has been some reorganization at North Colorado Medical Center, and we will he collaborating during the continuation of the grant with a different section than we attempted to work with last year for the walking program. North Colorado Medical Center/Diabetes Disease Management Also included with the letter of collaboration from the Diabetes Disease Management team, is an unsolicited email from the CSC Extension which clearly expresses the strengths of the collaborative efforts in Weld County.

Please explain how the finds requested for each budget item will be used. Be as specific as possible. Provide detail for local cash and in-kind. Project Director and Other Personnel This includes four hours a week for Marian Ruge and three hours a week for Olivia Martinez, a bilingual Health Educator in our department. She has been working with the classes at Jesus Rodarte Center during the last few months of the grant foi. 1999-2000. Because we have added the extra staff person, we have incorporated in-kind time for our county-funded positions to support the grant. Five hours a week of time for the grant from Gaye Akin are local in-kind. as well. Staff Time from Collaborating Agencies This program relies on collaborating with several agencies within Weld County. As you have noted in the Objectives, we rely on actions by many persons who are not funded by this grant. Therefore, we have indicated $10,000 local in-kind for their contributions. Printing/Duplicating Although half of the printing is provided as in-kind, we also use the County Print Shop and Kinko's for larger print orders, and these will be billed to the grant. Also.. any printed materials, such as cookbooks, that are purchased as educational materials are from this line item.. Telephone, Postage, and Supplies These are all provided as local in-kind. Informational/Educational Materials These include both the materials used as part of the teaching materials for the classes, such as foods high in calcium when teaching a class about osteoporosis prevention, as well as incentives, such as passes to the warm water therapy pool, which encourage exercise. This is decreased considerably from last year's budget because we found that we had overestimated this cost. Travel We target the Senior Centers outside Greeley for the classes, so reimbursement for travel is part of the budget. Meeting Expenses This is the support for the Weld County Diabetes Coalition. Other: Scholarships for Adult Fitness Classes and Child Care As mentioned in the narrative, the grant would provide scholarships for the initial adult exercise classes offered by the Aims Community College at the new Community Center in Fort Lupton. By using scholarships this year we have been able to start exercise classes at two other locations in Weld County. In-kind includes the vouchers provided for the second quarter of classes by Aims. Learning is optimized when there are not a lot of distractions. Having safe and engaging child care during the Operation Frontline classes will increase the effectiveness of the teaching. Equipment and Space Rental There is not a need for additional equipment for this grant, and we are fortunate to have a new building with adequate meeting space. Also, collaborating agencies such as North Colorado Medical Center, the Senior Centers and Jesus Rodarte Cultural Center provide space for classes without charge. North Colorado Medical Center Banner Health Colorado Colorado Action for Healthy People Inc. 4300 Cherry Creek Dr. South, 2nd Floor Denver, CO 80246-1530 August 8, 2000 To Whom It May Concern; We are writing in regards to our affiliation with the Weld County Diabetes Coalition. The Diabetes Disease Management team at North Colorado Medical Center in Greeley has been part of the coalition since its establishment. Over the years, we have worked with this group in many areas, including health fairs, screenings, community awareness, education materials, support groups, and networking with other services offered throughout Weld County. We commend their leadership, support and development of new services. We anticipate working with the coalition to offer our patients the "Dining with Diabetes" series during November (National Diabetes Month) and again in March (National Screening for Diabetes Day).
