Safe and Healthy Me — Stories from Alaskans

We asked small groups of Alaskans throughout the state to talk about the best thing they have done for their health.

When someone spoke, everyone else wanted to hear what they had to say. Was there something in that story that could help them, too?

Many of the best things shared were small changes. But the small changes had big payoffs for the quality of their lives. The stories inspired us, so we spent time with several Alaskans who tell their stories to you. Take a minute to watch, and listen.

• Elize - The Power of a Healthy Diet and Physical Activity (on the Alaska Comprehensive Cancer Control Program's Stories page)
• Molly - Diabetes, weight loss, cancer screening and treatment
• Daniel - Weight loss
• Becky - Preventing falls and easing pain
• David - Easing chronic back pain

So many of us have a success story to share, changes big or small that we have made to improve our health and safety.
