Delivering Sustainable Environments for Accessible Active Living

One strategy to improve health equity is to use social justice as a focus. Delivering resources necessary to afford all populations opportunities to experience wellness in a way that is accessible, affordable, practical and educational is creatively accomplished by the transformative organizations represented by members of this panel. James Rimmer has been developing and directing physical activity and health promotion programs for people with disabilities and training professionals to expand this important work for over 30 years. He is currently the Lakeshore Foundation Endowed Chair in Health Promotion and Rehabilitation Sciences at the University of Alabama, Birmingham (UAB) and Director of the UAB/Lakeshore Foundation Research Collaborative – linking research and programs for people with disabilities. Dr. Rimmer also directs the National Center on Health, Physical Activity and Disability and the Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center on Interactive Exercise Technologies and Exercise Physiology for People with Disabilities. Nedra Deadwyler is a Licensed Master Social Worker and the founder, owner, and operator of Civil Bikes. She brings innovation to biking by using this physical activity as a way for residents and tourists to learn about Atlanta’s rich, unique history related to civil rights and advocate for preservation and community building. Karen Showalter is the Food Justice Campaign Director and Pennsylvania State Director at MomsRising.org. Her focus is on strategic planning, organizing, and resource building to mobilize communities around important social justice issues including healthy food access, education, and national and international policy. Her resource targets include the empowerment of moms and families to use their influence to affect messaging in popular media and fast food chains.
