Faith-Based Settings

The NPAP Faith-Based Settings Sector focuses on physical activity promotion in communities of worship and faith-based service organizations. Relative to the general population, religious affiliation is higher among older generations, non-Hispanic Blacks, and in the South, all regions which participate in disproportionately less weekly physical activity. The sector aims to empower faith-based organizations to deliver effective physical activity programs to improve the holistic health of their employees and constituents.
