Making Prevention Efforts Stronger

E-mail Print
  • Focus on equity, making sure that resources go not just to communities who can quickly and effectively put prevention in place, but also to assist those communities who need extra support for planning and implementation.
  • Make the case for community prevention even richer, by supporting research and evaluation efforts that identify what works.
  • Build cross-sector and cross-issue partnerships.
  • Make health a priority in all of our policies and all of our work.
