‘Healthy Communities’: A Backgrounder

July, 2010
 
This backgrounder on ‘healthy communities’ provides a brief overview on healthy communities; what makes a healthy community; the benefits of using a healthy community approach; and the need for healthy public policies at the local level to support the Healthy Communities approach.
