SHE supports the awards program for building
healthy communities for active aging

SHE joins the growing chorus of organizations and foundations that embrace the spirit and vision of this award program that was developed by the US EPA Aging Initiative together with the President's Council for Fitness and Sports, the CDC, the National Council on Aging , Active for Life and the National Blueprint. This award recognizes communities for their outstanding comprehensive approaches to implementing principles of smart growth, as well as strategies that support active aging. This award is given each year to communities with the best and most inclusive overall approach to implementing smart growth and active aging on a variety of fronts, at the neighborhood, tribe, city, county, and/or regional level. Smart growth strategies address climate change and address the pollutants that harm human and ecological health.
