Presentation Outline • Background • Why fruits and vegetables • Development of Report • Describe purpose of State Indicator Report on Fruits and Vegetables, 2009 • Present key components and data • Behavioral indicators • Policy and environmental indicators • Describe application of the Indicator Report – Call to Action 2
Why focus on Fruits and Vegetables? Fruits and vegetables (F&V), as part of a healthy diet, are important for: • Optimal child growth • Weight management F&V have a protective role in: • Diabetes • Heart disease • Stroke • Some cancers • Hypertension Source: http://www.health.gov/DietaryGuidelines/dga2005/document/ 3
State Indicator Report on Fruits and Vegetables State Indicator Report on Fruits and Vegetables, 2009 can be used: • As a surveillance tool, part of state’s surveillance plan • Identify current successes & opportunities for growth and improvement in environmental and policy supports for making F&V more available and affordable within the state • Provide data for advocacy for change 4
Approaches for increasing supportive environments for F&V • Socioecological (SE) Model • Physical environment • Schools • Communities • Macro-level environments • Policy actions • Land use Story, M., K. M. Kaphingst, et al. (2008). "Creating healthy food and eating environments: policy and environmental approaches." Annual Rev Public Health29: 253-72, Figure 1. 5
State Indicator Report on Fruits and Vegetables Reports information for each state on two categories of indicators. • Reports information for each state on two categories of indicators. • The behavioral indicators profile the extent to which a state’s population is meeting Healthy People 2010 Fruit and Vegetable objectives. • The policy and environmental indicators measure elements of supportive policies and environments for F&V consumption. • The indicators show where a state has been successful in supporting the F&V target area and where more work is needed. • CDC plans publish to regularly throughout decade • Inform, Influence, and Monitor Change 6
