CDC on Healthy Communities

I just came across this article about a recent workshop the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention held to help improve health in the US. The American Society of Landscape Architects helped the CDC put together a report detailing the best methods for creating healthy communities. The workshop drew from a variety of organizations including the AIAS, ASLA, Congress for New Urbanism, and the National Association of Home Builders just to name a few. HERE's the article from the ASLA.

I thought this was an interesting article, but upon further investigation I discovered the CDC's site on healthy places which yielded even more information. Click HERE for this site.
