The Columbus Dispatch/AP article entitled "
Fitness Program for Mentally Ill Expands in NH" talks about a fitness program specifically geared for individuals who have mental illness. Individuals with mental illness have shorter life spans than individuals who do not, and those with serious mental illness have higher rates of obesity and smoking. What other ways can you think of to combat obesity and smoking in individuals with mental illness? Do you think programs like this one have a chance for long-term success?
