Community Involvement Report Healthy Communities Healthy Communities Skateboarding Skateboarding With Safety in Mind Community members join volunteer forces to assemble skating ramps. HMSA supports physical activities in our community and believes that a safe and accessible play environment can help enhance the physical, intellectual, social and emotional development of our youth. Kahuku was identified as a community in need of a safe play area. Initial plans were to build a playground like Waipahu's Honowai playground, which was built through a school, community, business and government partnership. However, in further discussions, Kahuku community members voiced a need for a skate park instead. As skateboarding becomes an increasingly popular recreational activity, it's important to ensure that participants have a safe environment, as well as proper protective gear and training. To improve skateboarding safety, HMSA partnered with the City & County of Honolulu's Department of Parks and Recreation, Coast Recreation, Association of Skateboarders of Hawaii, Hawaii Department of Health, and Kahuku Community Association to build the much-needed skate park to get youth "off the streets and into the park." This community-built skate park allows youth to enjoy the benefits of physical activity and encourages safe skating habits to help prevent serious injuries.

Uninsured Teens Often Left Out of Medicaid and CHIP A new report entitled "Adolescents in Public Health Insurance Programs: Medicaid and CHIP" released by the Advocates for Youth's Center for Adolescent Health and the Law stresses the need for states to extend eligibility for Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) to uninsured adolescents. Teens and young adults are uninsured at higher rates than other age groups, with more than 2.3 million uninsured adolescents eligible but not currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, the study reports. In addition, the study found that 1.3 million adolescents under age 19 are ineligible for the programs "either because states have not elected to cover them or their family income level exceeds federally allowed limits." The report found that 50% of states "are not yet doing all they could to establish Medicaid and CHIP eligibility levels that would reach as many adolescents as possible." According to the report, states should provide coverage for adolescents up to age 19 in families earning up to 200% of the federal poverty level. In light of the various health problems that many teens face, the report advises states to establish a "comprehensive set of benefits that includes preventive care as well as diagnostic and treatment services."

Jun. 09, 2004 War on Terror Transformation News Products Press Resources ... Contact Us WIC Health Program Expands Overseas Next Year By Gerry J. Gilmore American Forces Press Service WASHINGTON, Sept. 26, 2000 A government-sponsored supplemental food and health education program available to stateside military families will soon become available to families overseas as well. The Special Supplement Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, commonly known as WIC, will begin overseas in early 2001, said Roger W. Hartman, a TRICARE health policy analyst. “We’ve folks in the military stateside who are using WIC, but then get orders for overseas duty and lose the benefit. That's like taking a cut in pay,” he said. AFRTS TV Report: "DoD expands WIC family nutrition program overseas" can be viewed at 28.8 Kbps or 56 Kbps “Congress directed us to make WIC as available to personnel overseas as it is to those in the United States," he said. “We’re talking fundamentally about pay and money and making supplemental foods available to people where they are not available now and improving the overall health, diet and nutrition of the family members in the process.” The Child Nutrition Act of 1966 authorized WIC. Benefits have been available to military families stationed in the United States and its territories since about 1972, Hartman said. A recent amendment to U.S. Code Title 10 allows DoD to extend the program overseas.

Families learn fish farming, improve health in Bolivia - TUKUYPAJ CWS-supported aquaculture program in the Sacaba Highlands of Bolivia Photo: Rosa Lavecchia/CWS Over the past decade, the number of poor families throughout Latin America has grown. And, malnutrition often accompanies poverty. Church World Service partner TUKUYPAJ (Fish Culture Development and Technical Training Center) works to improve the situation of many poor families living in the Sacaba Highlands of Bolivia, families who often don’t have enough protein in their diets. TUKUYPAJ has initiated an aquaculture program to farm trout in area lagoons. During community training lessons, area residents have learned to farm trout in lagoons previously used only for irrigation. Local families are now eating trout regularly, nutrition and health are improving, and families are selling extra fish to earn an income. So far, 470 families in 12 communities are benefiting from the program, and five communities are managing the trout farms on their own. The program is also expanding to benefit even more families. Support for Church World Service, including a special gift from the Presbyterian Hunger Program, helps make this program possible.
