Purpose
NACCHO’s Maternal, Child, and Adolescent Health team, in partnership with Veritas Management Group, is launching an application for a new initiative, the Family Healthy Weight Program (FHWP) Action Institute. This action institute will bring together organizations currently implementing FHWPs to document implementation challenges, develop reimbursement strategies, and create policy solutions that can be elevated to state and federal levels. This year-long, non-funded initiative will result in a repository of evidence-based reimbursement strategies that can inform future policy changes to support the sustainability of FHWPs.
