Advocacy Tools

Supporting health in all policies and projects

As part of our commitment to making the healthy choice, the easy choice in Yellowstone County, the Healthy By Design Coalition provides support to decision makers and community health advocates in the following ways:

Provide relevant data on community health status, needs and priorities
Sharing evidence-based strategies to measurably improve health
Convening leaders and community members alike to discuss health issues and potential solutions
Raising awareness of community engagement or funding opportunities that align with community health improvement goals
Creating a call to action to leverage collective resources to create a positive impact in our community

HBD Partners are working together on several upcoming projects to promote upstream policy work in this area.
