Healthy People

We will develop and conduct programs, create partnerships and have input into social policy which is aimed at improving opportunities for better health and well being for those demographic, geographic and cultural communities which suffer the worst health.

1. Use place based approaches to enhance, strengthen and support local initiatives in communities with particular health needs.

2. Enhance the capacity of local communities to address their health issues.

3. Act to initiate, develop or have input into social and health policy which creates greater equity in health.

4. Provide an independent forum for the development of cooperative approaches to regional health issues.

Healthy Cities
