Where you live, work, learn, and play is a major contributor in shaping your health. The physical design of your community affects your health every time you step out your front door. Sometimes making healthy choices is not easy — such as being physically active when you do not have access to sidewalks or safe parks, or eating right when healthy foods are not available or are too expensive.

From informed planning to the design of individual buildings and landscapes, creating communities that support healthy living requires multi-sector collaboration.
Join us to engage in the conversation at the 2017 Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) Summit to hear from HEAL campaign leaders, policy specialists, and program managers about their collaborations for collective impact, as well as how each see their work as part of the larger HEAL movement!
