REACH 2010 is a part of the Department of Health and
Human Services response to the President's race Initiative
and Goal for 2010 to eliminate disparities in health status
experienced by the racial and ethnic minority populations.
The Oklahoma Project in one of the two Native American
projects funded for phase II. The Oklahoma Coalition
determined that physical activity interventions would be
used to reduce disparities in diabetes and cardiovascular
disease among Native Americans in Oklahoma. The Wichita &
Affiliated Tribes are one of the eight tribes, one urban
clinic, and the Oklahoma State Department of Health that
make up this coalition.
In order to qualify as a REACH 2010 participant or guest,
you must be Native American, a spouse or child of a Native
American. The Oklahoma State Health Dept., who is our
funding agency, asked us to stop signing new participants,
they have data on more participants than what were required.
So the REACH 2010 program has made provisions that made it
possible to allow "guest" participants to sign up. At
present, we have two fitness centers. If our fitness centers
are not overcrowded with active REACH 2010 participants,
guest are allowed to use the fitness centers and participate
in the classes. Currently our fitness centers each have a
certified fitness trainer, cardio and strength training
equipment. The downtown location has scheduled exercise
classes (aerobic, yoga, chair exercises and karate) on
Mondays & Thursday evenings, chair exercise on Wednesday at
10:30a.m.
