Plan4Health is an initiative that connects communities across the country, funding work at the intersection of planning and public health.
Plan4Health
Anchored by the American Planning Association (APA) and the American Public Health Association (APHA), Plan4Health supports creative partnerships to build sustainable, cross-sector coalitions. Launched in 2010, the Eastern Highlands Health District (EHHD) Community Health Action Response Team (CHART) focuses on policy and environmental change to support healthy eating and active living among the 10 towns served by the EHHD. Strategies for the Plan4Health project include assessing zoning policies and codes that impact opportunities for active transportation and developing a rural community toolkit.
