April 2018
Greetings!
Over the past several months the Champion Provider Fellowship team, in collaboration with ChangeLab Solutions, has been hard at work developing a new version of the PSE Playbook. The new Playbook, which will be made available later this month at the Champion Provider Fellowship Mini College, will introduce the
Seven Elements of PSE Change
. It will include seven
Implementation Case Studies
that outline the following:
- Intervention summary
- Role of the Provider and level of involvement
- Elements of change
- Timeline and results
We hope Fellows and local health departments will be able to use the case studies and resources outlined in the Playbook to augment their own work. For individuals unable to make the training, presentations will made available online and new versions of the Playbook distributed by mail.
In addition to the Mini College, make sure to check-out our upcoming trainings and webinars that will be taking place over the next few months.

The study provides the first comprehensive analysis of food and beverage sponsorships of US sports organizations. Food and beverage companies were the second largest category of sponsors, and the majority of food and beverages in sponsorship commercials were unhealthy.
This paper explores the interdependency of food relations through young people’s accounts of food insecurity. Drawing on ethnographic research with a youth urban agriculture program, [Cairns] shows how young people articulate experiences of food insecurity through the lens of maternal foodwork, describing efforts to support mothers who are struggling to provide in the context of poverty.
The Lancet Taskforce on Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and economics highlights the role of fiscal policies in encouraging healthy diets and lifestyles to reduce the largest contributors to preventable NCDs—namely, smoking, harmful alcohol consumption, and obesity.
