The IDD Needs Council of Tarrant County held a 2015 Faith-Based Symposium with pre- and post-evaluations to assess inclusion of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in faith communities. The pre-evaluation found over half of registrants did not have a household member with IDD and most felt their communities were only slightly inclusive. Barriers to inclusion included accessibility, training, and resources. The post-evaluation found over 90% felt the symposium celebrated inclusion and highlighted local opportunities. Attendees found the presentations and personal stories most effective and suggested increasing diversity, outreach, and interactive activities at future events.MEETING 4 PRESENTATION (9) PPRE CIC (UK) IVISOC 2012

Outdoor recreation can benefit military service members and veterans during transitions by promoting mental health, emotional resiliency, and skill development. Research shows that outdoor programs improve psychological well-being, social functioning, and life outlook for veterans. Programs build community, provide stress relief, and develop skills. Referring veterans positively to outdoor opportunities supports reintegration and developing new identities outside of service. Community organizations can collaborate on best practices while respecting individual needs and promoting public lands access.Strategically Integrating Civic Engagement into Student Life

The document discusses the increasing prominence of integrated care in health policy documents over time, with references to integration increasing at a rate of 78% per year. While integration is increasingly emphasized, there is no national data showing whether it is actually improving quality of care experienced by individuals. To make integrated care more than just a "pipe dream", the document argues that interventions to support integration must address issues of context, like funding and work stress, through approaches that bring together data, workforce capability, and management across services.Dan corry presentation

This document summarizes a debate about the role of the voluntary sector in health and social care. It discusses how the voluntary sector can help move towards a new era of partnership between health and social care. While integrating health and social care seems logical, cultural and structural barriers have prevented it from happening. The voluntary sector is well-positioned to play a big role because charities consider the whole person and all their needs, not just medical issues. The document also examines specific areas where more work is needed, such as how the health service can better partner with charities, how charities can save the health service money through prevention and addressing social determinants of health, and how charities can influence and create systems change within health careMore Related Content

This document discusses nutrition and well-being in later life. It notes that malnutrition increases sharply after age 70 and older adults account for most malnutrition in hospitals. Good nutrition can help manage chronic disease and weight, while undernutrition increases disease risk and negatively impacts mood and quality of life. Specific nutrients like vitamins and fatty acids affect well-being and cognition. Towards the end of life, the document questions whether individual needs and preferences of older adults are adequately considered regarding food, which can impact dignity, anxiety and quality of life.Seen ya rights presentation

Two out of five people aged over 50 cant swim fit as a fiddle - Big Lottery Funding through Age UK Oxfordshire Free pool time and marketing provided by Nexus Community A 贈15,000 project to run free swimming lessons for weak or non- swimmers aged 50 and over Participants signed up to eight, forty-five minute free swimming lessons at their local pool
- 3. The programme. Started in April 2010 7 swimming pool sites across Oxfordshire and 3 sites in Buckinghamshire 372 older people learnt to swim through the programme 86% of those signed up, attended over half the weekly sessions 1 in 3 continuing to swim in weekly 50+ sessions and more still enrolling in further adult lessons at the centre By the end of 2011, 500 older people benefited from this project Each swimmer completed a swim diary to demonstrate the impact and chart their personal journey
- 4. The learning.. Social element key The more positive the social aspect, the more motivated the swimmers were to attend Sense of camaraderie and enjoyment is central to the continual development of the swimmers Significant number of participants who took part in the swimming began participating in other leisure centre activities on a regular basis Participants were more willing to re-evaluate their initial negative stereotype of going to their local leisure centre New need highlighted
- 5.

Now dont feel nervous about coming to the swimming pool and getting in the water my confidence has blossomed and I feel a lot safer in the water I never thought I would get the opportunity to do this, I enjoyed every minute.
