12. Healthy Communities Projects Healthy Communities don’t happen by accident. Communities are concerned about health effects of rising obesity rates and are taking action. Community leaders recognize that their residents can’t move more or eat healthier foods without changes in their community environment. Education and awareness alone won’t result in change. Safe sidewalks, trails, and bicycle lanes make it easier for people to move about and leave their car at home. Healthy food choice in school cafeterias and restaurants, well supported food banks, and neighborhood farmers markets offer options for healthier food. Making sustainable community changes involves long term partnerships among public health, private business, municipal government, community advocates, transportation planners, and schools. http://www.doh.wa.gov/cfh/nutritionpa/our_communities/healthy_communit ies_projects/default.htm
