IPHI’s HEAL Cities & Towns Campaign gained local press this week in response to two municipalities joining the Campaign:
- Leesburg Today covered the Town of Leesburg’s adoption of a HEAL Resolution, which includes policy strategies aimed at improving workplace wellness, future land use and transportation planning, and increasing nutritious foods served at Town-buildings and events.
- The Prince George’s County Gazette covered the City of College Park’s adoption of a HEAL Resolution, which sets policy goals for the City that include the adoption of a Complete Streets policy, creating a workplace wellness committee for the municipal workplace, supporting community gardens, and encouraging acceptance of SNAP/EBT benefits at farmers markets.
