Fight Blight
health happens where we have safe places to walk and play
The way your neighborhood is built – streets, houses, schools, sidewalks, streetlights, businesses, freeways, and parks – can be good, or bad, for your health. Is it easy to get around, or is it scary just to cross the street?
Do you live next to a park, or a freeway? Which is closer, the grocery store or the liquor store? We have the power to plan, build, and maintain our communities so that health happens in every neighborhood.
