ClinConnect Summary

The Expanded Population Health Model Evaluation is a study designed to see how a wellness program focused on improving heart health can affect people living in the Bonton neighborhood. This program will look at how different activities related to health and wellbeing can help improve overall cardiovascular health over a year. Participants in this study will not be assigned to specific activities; instead, they will choose how they want to engage in the available programs.

To join this study, you need to be at least 18 years old and willing to change your diet or physical activity. You must also be able to commit to participating for 12 months and join programs at Bonton Farms. However, if you have taken part in certain lifestyle change programs in the past six months or have a terminal illness, you won’t be eligible. Throughout the year, you can expect to share information about your health and wellbeing as you engage with the community and activities provided. This is an exciting opportunity to improve your health while being part of a supportive community!
