Thriving Communities Transform Lives
Building a Culture of Health in New Jersey is about improving health, equity and well-being for ALL residents. Because communities are too often limited by location, finances, and/or discrimination, this year's conference, "Thriving Communities Transform Lives" will focus on:
- Taking targeted action and developing scalable solutions
- Addressing community specific barriers
- Shifting cultural values toward health
- Creating strong social connections in schools, early care, and homes
- Identifying ACEs and trauma experiences
- Sharing diverse examples of health transformation
- Advancing policies that support collaborations and partnerships
- Strengthening community based healthcare through youth-led programs
- Ensuring that neighborhood infrastructure supports active lifestyles
To achieve health equity, we need to meet communities where they are and address unique barriers so that physical and mental health is a part of everything we do.
