Abstract:
Abstract Wellness coaching, a process in which a coach and client partner together to address the client’s wellness goals, can increase motivation and develop skills to enhance wellness and lifestyle balance among older adults. To understand wellness preferences among Life Plan Community residents, we surveyed a total of 447 residents from 10 Life Plan Communities. Participants were asked about perceptions of wellness, wellness activity preferences, motivators and barriers to participation in wellness activities, and wellness coaching program preferences. Twenty employees in wellness-related or leadership roles also completed a survey. To enhance our understanding of these perspectives on wellness coaching, nine residents and four employees participated in follow-up interviews. Among the study findings, the majority of resident respondents expressed an interest in improving almost all domains of wellness. Forty percent (40%) of participants said they were extremely or moderately likely to try wellness coaching, and about one-half (51%) said they believed they would benefit from wellness coaching. Staff indicated interest in implementing a wellness coaching program in their community, with 74% reporting at least a moderate likelihood of implementing a program if led by a staff member. Results indicated that emotional and vocational wellness programs were offered and attended less frequently than other types of wellness programs, which suggests that wellness coaching could help to address the need for more programming in these areas. In addition, findings suggested that implementation requires resident input to ensure buy-in. The survey results informed the development of recommendations for a resident wellness coaching program.

Abstract:
Eighty one percent of employers offer programs that focus on wellness (Hewitt, 2005 & Collins, 2004), but most do not have the resources to hire a health professional, and less than 40% of those that implement wellness programs have training. Qualitative and quantitative data were used to identify ways health professionals can support practitioners who are implementing wellness programs.Results showed that survey respondents are involved with wellness of their personal interest (94%, N=52). Since few have had training, workshops in a community setting are a good way for implementers to discuss challenges, successes, and ideas.Recommendations from this study include facilitating more canned programs that allow for tailoring, creating networking opportunities for wellness program implementers, allowing for more time during workshops for discussion of program materials, focusing on ways to overcome barriers.

Abstract:

According to the Centers for Disease Control, 33.9% of U.S. adults are overweight and 35.1% are obese. Individuals with the highest rates of overweight and obesity are African Americans (48%) followed by Latinos (43%), who in many cases are also underserved. Regular physical activity and proper nutrition have many health benefits; however, overweight and obese undeserved individuals may not be aware of the available resources, nor have the financial means to partake in quality fitness and nutrition programing. Kinesiology and Nutrition students, on the other hand, have limited opportunities to provide fitness and nutrition programming to underserved communities while developing their well-being, character, and leadership strengths. Because of the dual-natured need, the Beach Community Wellness Program (BCWP) was created. The BCWP is a free fitness and nutrition intervention program taught by CSULB Kinesiology and Nutrition students. The program is offered to underserved citizens in the North Long Beach area. The purpose of this project was to provide a comprehensive synopsis of the BCWP that focuses on: 1) the design and implementation of BCWP; and 2) the program’s effects from both the adults and student perspectives.

Abstract:

Underserved populations suffer the highest rates of overweight and obesity. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, African Americans have the highest obesity rates followed by Latinos (47.8% and 42.5% respectively). In the City of Long Beach, 40.9% of adults are overweight and 24.6% are considered obese. Overweight and obesity are major risk factors that contribute to chronic diseases. In an effort to help curtail these unhealthy trends, The Beach Community Wellness Program (BCWP) was created. During the second year of the program’s implementation, the author realized additional resources could help supplement the classes being offered. The purpose of this project was to create a free fitness and nutrition manual for the BCWP participants. The manual is divided into two parts; fitness information to help increase participant’s daily levels of physical activity and nutrition guidelines to help improve their eating habits. Recommendations for future BCWP manuals are provided.

Abstract:
The administrative devolution of provincial child welfare jurisdiction to Aboriginal authorities, dating back to the early 1980s, has resulted in a number of improvements for Aboriginal families that experience child protection services (Bellefeuille, Ricks and Garrioch, 1997; Hamilton, 2001). The larger political objective, however, of Aboriginal Peoples to govern and self­ determine their own culturally distinct, integrative and holistic community healing approach to social wellness and tackling the pressing concerns of child maltreatment, family break down, and vanishing sense of community, has failed to come about under the prevailing deficit oriented child protection paradigm.' Our experiences for over thirty years as a front line social work practitioner and past director of the largest First Nation child welfare agency in the country, and as a researcher, academic, and organizational consultant to several First Nation agencies leads us to conclude that the realization of the Aboriginal vision for an alternative child welfare model is untenable under the force of the imposing protection paradigm. In this article, we share both our thoughts about the devolution process, the traditional protection paradigm under which Aboriginal agencies are required to operate, and our experience in helping to shape the alternative paradigm which we believe must be built upon new themes that emphasize "community"and"wellness."

Abstract:

Foster youth face significant challenges as they navigate higher education; estimated rates of those who obtain Bachelor Degrees vary from 1 to 11% (Casey Family Services, 1999; Emerson, 2006; Pecora et al., 2003). Grounded in identity, attachment, development, and student success theories and rooted in relational cultural therapy, this proposed program applies components to help counter and shrink the achievement gap of foster youth. Utilizing case management, a mentoring program, and across-system collaboration and communication, educational outcomes for foster youth can be improved, avenues for positive and consistent interpersonal adult connections can be provided, and access to existing services across campus, local, and county systems for foster youth attending a community colleges can be improved. The challenges facing foster youth, associated theories and proposed intervention components are examined and supported by the literature. Intervention strengths, limitations, and implications are also explored.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: An exploration of the integrated nature of sustainable development planning and health care was done in the context of people living and working in the town of Grabouw in the Western Cape. The problem that was investigated was that people working within local government and community health networks treated sustainable development planning and health care as separate issues. The notion of wellness, as different from health, was used as a central theme in the study. It allowed for an acknowledgement of the multidimensionality and contextual nature of human well-being. The notion of sustainable community wellness was used to guide the research, and was viewed as a complex phenomenon. The meanings of sustainable community wellness to people who work and live within local government and community health networks in Grabouw were observed and documented. Complexity theory was then used to discuss the observed perspectives on sustainable community wellness. Two factors informed the selection of Grabouw as a research site: Firstly, a comprehensive sustainable development programme was being carried out in the town of Grabouw during the research. Secondly, a few community health care initiatives were also being implemented at the time. Community care workers who worked in one of the community health organisations participated as primary research participants. The research combined conceptual and empirical research. The conceptual research consisted of a literature review of perspectives on wellness in Grabouw. The empirical research methods that were used combined ethnography in the form of participant observation, and participatory action research in the form of participatory photography. The researcher accompanied community care workers on their daily visits to patients. The care workers took photographs of aspects of their surroundings that represented sustainable community wellness, or the lack thereof, to them. Photographs were analysed through focus group discussions and pertinent themes were subsequently identified. Three meanings of sustainable community wellness were discovered. The first was the structural, governmental meaning that gave importance to health and socio-economic statistics, based on the mortality profile of the area. Wellness was seen from this perspective as a challenge that could be met with strategic planning. The second meaning was the community-based experience of environmental factors in Grabouw that had an impact on wellness, such as water, community forums and living spaces. In this case, wellness was experienced as a rich and diverse set of factors, both social and environmental. The third meaning was observed as instances where the apparent separate entities of local government, the community, and the physical environment were seen as one socio-ecological system, of which sustainable community wellness was an emergent property. These instances demonstrated the importance of managing the quality of relationships within the system, the need to enhance the autonomy of people working in the system and the potential of community care workers to be agents of sustainable community wellness.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Ondersoek is gedoen na die geïntegreerde aard van volhoubare ontwikkelingsbeplanning en gesondheidsorg in die konteks van mense wat in die dorp Grabouw in die Wes-Kaap woon en werk. Die probleem wat ondersoek is, is dat mense wat in plaaslike regerings- en gemeenskapsgesondsheidnetwerke werk, volhoubare ontwikkelingsbeplanning en gesondheidsorg as afsonderlike sake beskou. Die begrip ‘welstand’, wat in betekenis van ‘gesondheid’ verskil, is as 'n sentrale tema in die studie gebruik, en is soortgelyk aan die begrip ‘welwees’. Dit het erkenning verleen aan die meerdimensionele en kontekstuele aard van menslike welwees. Die begrip volhoubare gemeenskapswelstand wat as 'n komplekse verskynsel beskou is, het die ondersoek gerig. Die betekenis van volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand vir mense wat in plaaslike regerings- en gemeenskapsgesondheidnetwerke in Grabouw woon en werk, is waargeneem en gedokumenteer. Kompleksiteitsteorie is voorts gebruik om die waargenome perspektiewe op die volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand te bespreek. Twee faktore het die besluit om Grabouw as 'n navorsingsgebied te gebruik, beïnvloed: Eerstens was daar tydens die navorsingstydperk reeds 'n omvattende volhoubare ontwikkeling program in Grabouw aan die gang. Tweedens was 'n paar gemeenskapsgesondheidsorg-inisiatiewe ook in dié tydperk aktief. Gemeenskapgesondheidswerkers wat in een van die gemeenskapsgesondheidsorganisasies gewerk het, was primêre deelnemers aan die navorsing. In hierdie ondersoek is konseptuele en empiriese navorsing gekombineer. Die konseptuele navorsing het uit 'n literatuuroorsig van perspektiewe op welwees in Grabouw bestaan. Die empiriese navorsingsmetodes wat gebruik is, het etnografie in die vorm van deelnemende waarneming, asook deelnemende-aksie-navorsing in die vorm van deelnemende fotografie, behels. Die navorser het gemeenskapsgesondheidswerkers op hul daaglikse besoeke aan pasiënte vergesel. Hierdie werkers het foto's geneem van die aspekte van hul omgewing wat na hulle mening die volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand, of die gebrek daaraan, verteenwoordig. Foto's is tydens fokusgroepbesprekings ontleed en relevante temas is daardeur geïdentifiseer. Drie betekenisse van die volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand het tydens die ondersoek na vore gekom. Die eerste is die strukturele, regeringsverwante betekenis wat bestaan het uit gesondheidsen sosio-ekonomiese statistiek, gebaseer op die sterftesyferprofiel van die gebied. Welstand is vanuit hierdie perspektief gesien as 'n uitdaging wat deur middel van strategiese beplanning aangepak kon word. Die tweede betekenis is die gemeenskapsgebaseerde ervaring van omgewingsfaktore wat 'n uitwerking op welstand het, soos water, gemeenskapsforums en leefareas in Grabouw. Welstand is in hierdie geval ervaar as bestaande uit 'n reeks ryke en diverse faktore wat beide sosiaal en omgewingsverwant is. Die derde betekenis is waargeneem deur die identifisering van die gevalle wat die kompleksiteit van die stelsel wat bestudeer is, verteenwoordig het. In hierdie gevalle is die oënskynlike aparte entiteite van plaaslike regering, die gemeenskap, en die fisiese omgewing gesien as 'n sosio-ekologiese sisteem waarvan volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand 'n ontluikende element is. Deur hierdie gevalle is daar aangetoon dat dit belangrik is om die gehalte van die verhoudings binne die stelsel te bestuur en om die outonomie van die mense wat binne die stelsel werk te ondersteun. Ten slotte is die potensiaal van gemeenskapsgesondheidswerkers om as agente van die volhoubare gemeenskaps-welstand op te tree, uitgelig.

Abstract:
The moderate and periodic practice of physical exercise promotes cell protection against viral infection due the balance between cellular immune response, determined directly by T lymphocytes, and humoral cells in which specific antibodies participate, produced by mature B lymphocytes. The countries members of the United Nations Organization (UNO) approved the Aging International Action Plan (AIAP) where are proposed strategies to support the prevention of mental disorders, the treatment of aged illness, as well the strengthening of a care network and support to aged people with the participation of the family, volunteers, and community. Following the UNO tendency, Campos dos Goytacazes/RJ governance started the 60+ health project developed by the superintendence of the Elderly's Rights under to the active and healthy aging for promotion of an active lifestyle to aged population. Given the above, the study goal was to verify the effectiveness of physical exercises proposed virtually on the individual lifestyle of aged people. 458 individuals of both sexes, with age above 60 years were introduced in the study. 356 aged people participated in the physical exercises program, and 102 non-participated in the virtual activities. As a data collection device was used the Individual lifestyle profile questionnaire known as wellness pentacle, a conceptual basis for the evaluation of lifestyle of individuals or groups. Videos with physical exercises proposed were uploading to the Youtube platform, and also directly sent to aged people on social isolation imposed by COVID-19, from app messages. In front of the found results, it is possible to claim that the practice of physical activity with online guidance and prescription impacted positively in the aged people's quality of life inserted on 60+ health project making evident the importance of physical activity practice during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
There is a national crisis around recruiting and retaining students from HBCUs. The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education surveyed 64 of 100 HBCUs and found that only five of the schools surveyed graduated more than 50 percent of their students. The statistics are startling because HBCUs, some of which date to Reconstruction in the South after the Civil War (widely accepted as the period from 1865 to 1877), ostensibly was designed to improve an underserved community. Despite the large number of freshmen admitted each year to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU), a low number graduate (Tinto, 1993). It is, therefore, imperative that HBCUs implement strategies most likely to increase retention and persistence rates. When it comes to taking a closer look at pedagogy and practice in teaching, the COVID-19 Pandemic has created innovative environments for faculty to assess the students. The new perspective has many faculties utilizing evidence-based practices regarding performance-based assessment and other innovative techniques to assess students learning. Online teaching & learning and online assessment are likely to occupy a higher percentage of the future curriculum, which can be seen as a positive development for online learning. A correlation assumed that university faculty satisfaction and fair promotion could have a positive effect on student retention and engagement with a comprehensive analysis of these studies. It is paramount to consider that not only was fundamental student engagement found of tremendous relevance, but the literature is evident that student engagement during the entire higher education experience also leads to higher student retention rates and increased institutional commitment (Burke, 2019). This paper defines retention and persistence at HBCUs and presents the results of a systematic literature review that (a) identifies the challenges that impact student retention and persistence at HBCUs during the COVID-19 Pandemic and (b) delineates research-based practices/strategies recommended to address the academic, socio-emotional, and financial and health/wellness challenges of students attending HBCUs.

Abstract:
"In the 21st century agronomy students need to take the responsibility of their career planning. Upon graduation, they are called to combine knowledge, skills, and values, in order to support as change agents, farmers’ decision making aiming at sustainable agriculture and rural development. To reinforce such a role it is deemed necessary to cultivate student agency, namely, a sense of responsible and active participation in society. Students need to be able to set achievable goals, collaborate successfully in order to solve problems, and act in-line with a professional ethos supporting the wellness of the community and the sustainability of earth. Hence, the need of competence-based education in our century is usually taken as granted. Higher education should adopt educational methods and tools that would support students’ competence development. Experiential learning, represented by Kolb’s Experiential Learning Cycle (KELC), is an essential part of such an approach and includes four stages: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. In this paper, we explore the effectiveness of experiential learning aiming at the acquisition and/or development of competencies on the part of Agricultural University of Athens (AUA) students. To attain such an objective, we carried out a pilot with 69 AUA students, in spring of 2021. Students were divided into three groups (A, B, and C). Each group, attended a 3-hour meeting, using different approaches (A=traditional lecturing, B=experiential learning based on KELC and C=investigative case-based learning). Furthermore, students were offered a participatory class regarding rural advisors’ profile and planet sustainability. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, online tools were adopted. Students participated in pre- and post-survey based on a questionnaire. Focus groups and observation methods were also utilized to further explore and validate quantitative data. In this paper we report the design and the quantitative and qualitative findings, particularly focused on the experiential learning approach."

Abstract:
As the Industrial Revolution took place and steam driven machines emerged in the 18th century, the Industrial Age began and cities became the core of industrial and populational growth. That phenomena occurred as the job opportunities and quality of life increasingly developed away from the countryside, with the arrival of electricity and inventions such as the light bulb, thanks to important people like Sir Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison. The city, therefore, can be looked in two different ways: the urban space, occupied with tangible elements, and the social environment, filled with urban practices and cohabitation. An essential matter in many disciplines, the city is a recurrent topic for researchers who seek to understand this phenomenon of human activities. The history behind the rise of the cities show tell us about the creation of urban spaces and its manifestations, functions, transformations and the complexity inherent to the various typologies in cities all over the world. The city is a scenario full of overlapping messages that characterize the accessibility and urban communication. This is defined by Nojima (1999) as the result of the interaction between social representations and the scenario where they occur. It is through the interpretation of these messages that are manifested in the urban design accessible from cities (streets, buildings, gardens, squares, furnitures), that the individual defines the elements that identify their city. This paper discovery the concepts of city and their accessibility relationships with urban practices - design of urban activity - that directly influence the implementation of urban furniture and, above all, the importance given to them by the population, with regard to its true functions (adequacy, accessibility, ergonomics, identity and others) of their uses and appropriations. It is important for the study also understand the urban furniture relation with the project of cities - is to complement the public space or the way how interferes the urban landscape. It is need to understand how society is shown in front of herself and the world itself that surrounds and what are the affective devices that make city living when connected - through the use - therefore, this is the powerfull forces of individuals and community , space practices created by the tactics of the population to allow theirs ambiance, wellness, safety and comfort, sensations often perceived by the set of elements that constitute the urban furniture of cities.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3291
