DISCUSSION.
The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) is providing grant funding to develop and test a
community physical activity curriculum to be used in training Promatares ar community health workers. The
City of Fart Worth Public Health Department, Outreach Division, is already a certified PromotorlCHW
training institute. DSHS will give preference in awards for this grant to certified training institutes. The
Outreach Division is proposing development of this curriculum based on physical activity programs already
being utilized by department educators, "On the Trail to a Healthy Heart and "Walk for the Health of It". The
curriculum will teach workers to:
• Assess the physical activity needs in a community.
• Identify gaps in physical activity opportunities or knowledge.
• Select, implement and evaluate a culturally and linguistically-appropriate community physical activity
intervention.
• Understand and communicate current physical activity recommendations in a culturally and linguistically
appropriate manner.
• Listen and appropriately respond to common barriers to physical activity.
• Wark with community partners to increase physical activity opportunities through information, instruction,
ar access to places and spaces for physical activity.
This curriculum will also be used by workers to better promote physical activity in the communities they
serve. Once the curriculum is completed and evaluated it will be given to and become the sole property of
DSHS, who will make the curriculum available to any interested organization (s) involved in training
