Abstract:
This featured program report is part of a series related to Interventions for Healthy Eating and Active Urban Living: A Guide for Community Health. The featured program reports provide information on community partnerships and interventions that support healthy eating and active living in NYC. Program leaders and implementers provide detail on the background, impact and sustainability of each effort, along with advice to others looking to develop similar interventions in NYC and beyond. These featured program reports and the guide were developed in partnership with the Designing a Strong and Healthy New York City (DASH-NYC) Workgroup, which aims to improve health and promote health equity for all New Yorkers using a multisector approach to advancing chronic disease prevention in NYC. DASH-NYC was launched in January 2015 by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and the New York Academy of Medicine as part of the New York City Population Health Improvement Program (NYC PHIP). The NYC PHIP, with support from the New York State Department of Health, promotes health equity and the "Triple Aim" of improved health care, reduced health care costs, and better health across the City.
