SHE (Strong. Healthy. Energized.) Facilitator's Guide
October 2014 | Lewin Group and SAGE
The SHE Facilitator Guide provides information on the Strong, Healthy, Energized (SHE), a facilitator-led, group-based health and fitness program for older (age 60+) lesbian and bisexual women. The SHE program is designed to help participants develop healthier eating habits and improve their physical fitness, specifically through a walking initiative. SHE also promotes stress management and a caring, engaged, group environment.
The SHE program is designed to last 12 weeks and be bookended with check-ins to provide participants with a sense of their health before and after participation. The program includes weekly, hour-long group sessions addressing physical activity and nutrition in the older female population. The classes are held in a location and space identified with LGBT communities.
