FAT: What No One Is Telling You

May Memo

Thank you for your interest and participation in FAT: What No One Is Telling You. We’ve enjoyed sharing the good news of the initiative and hearing your success stories.

The broadcast of FAT has aired, but the initiative continues. We encourage you to:

Keep our Web site bookmarked
We will continue to host downloadable tips sheets, tool kits and customizable promotional tools to enhance your events.

Connect with partners…
Remember that the YMCA of the USA is a formal community outreach partner for FAT.  Twin Cities Public Television made posters and DVD’s available to participating YMCAs for post-broadcast screening parties and events. DVDs have just arrived, so please visit http://www.ymca.net/find_your_ymca to connect with your local Y.

A number of you subscribed to this newsletter after the premier of FAT. This will be the last update from us, but check out the previous editions with tips, suggestions and partnership information on our Web site: http://www.tpt.org/pbsfatinfo/enews.html.

What worked for you? Share your stories!
We’d love to hear highlights of your outreach activities, your feedback will help us to improve future newsletters and outreach resources.

  • What programs did you develop to fit your community’s specific needs?
  • How helpful were the Outreach Toolkit and downloadable Tip Sheets we provided on our outreach  Web site?
  • Did you distribute any of the tip sheets?
  • What portions of the toolkit did you use?

Because reaching into all communities is so important to us, also please let us know if you screened the Spanish version of the show or distributed the Spanish tip sheets.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to drop us a note! Responses by May 15 would be appreciated but for those of you with events planned for this summer, please keep this email address handy so you can let us know too! Email: pbsfatinfo@tpt.org.

Stay tuned for future Take One Step programs to continue outreach initiatives…

Coming in Spring of 2008:
 - Cancer (w.t), presented by WGBH
 - Depression (w.t), presented by Twin Cities Public Television

Thank you for your great work on this project!
