INDIANAPOLIS, IN – ACSM, through its membership in the Physical Activity Alliance, has reached out to the leadership of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee for Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies with a request to allocate $125M for the CDC’s Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity (DNPAO) for Fiscal Year 2023.
The DNPAO promotes active living and healthy eating across the nation; as we continue to deal with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, improving the health and well-being of our citizens is of the utmost importance and rightfully deserves our investment. Further, the DNPAO’s programs could substantially reduce health care costs nationwide.
