The
materials in this
section are to help
you carry out a
health event in your
area in support of
the organization's
health initiative,
Raising Up Healthy
Women and Girls.
Getting started
While you will want
to review all of the
material, begin with
the four planning
pieces:
-
The Planning "Top
Ten" — A list of ten
action steps.
-
A sample timeline —
Give yourself enough
time to ensure a
well-planned and
well-executed event.
-
Presenters,
partners, and
provisions — This
list of possible
presenters and
questions the
planning group
should ask will help
you to ensure that
the details are
covered.
-
Contacts — This list
of Women of the ELCA
staff contacts may
come in handy as you
have questions
during your planning
stages.
Healthy Heart
Fair
The Healthy Heart
Fair — which
received rave
reviews at the
health events in
2006 — enlarges
one's understanding
of the scope of
healthy living
through E-S-P: emotional
health, spiritual
health, physical
health. By exploring
up to 12 tables or
"stations of the
heart," participants
will engage in
hands-on activity
that can be carried
through in daily
life. Creativity
about how you want
to decorate your
tables is
encouraged. Photos
of one way the
tables were created
are available on the
healthy heart fair
page to help you get
started.
