National DPP LCP + Walk With Ease Coupling
National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD), the Arthritis Foundation, ProVention Health Foundation, and the Diabetes Training and Technical Assistance Center at Emory are partnering to couple two evidence-based interventions through an innovative technology solution.
This project integrates the Arthritis Foundation’s Walk With Ease (WWE) self-directed program, which focuses on decreasing pain and increasing physical function, with the National Diabetes Prevention Program Lifestyle Change Program (National DPP).
The coupling project leverages the WWE program to provide National DPP participants with an evidence-based, structured physical activity component to help them meet their physical activity goals, as well as other health goals related to the program.
