What Do You Think?

Hospital

Health Disparities

Communities of color have disproportionately high rates of diabetes and heart disease.

Who/what is most responsible?

 

The health care system-for limiting access to services and providing inadequate care

 

Businesses-for the high number of fast food restaurants and liquor stores and the low number of grocery stores with healthy food

 

Local officials-for providing fewer parks and recreation programs

 

Public schools-for serving unhealthy meals and reducing physical education programs

 

Individuals-who are responsible for their own health

 

Other/none of the above

(I've already taken the poll and want to see the results.)

Stay tuned for a schedule of online discussions with Road to Health experts.
