Value: If we want to live healthful lives, we need to be able to make healthy choices.
Barrier: Too often health isn’t factored into all of the decisions policy-makers are making or it might not always seem relevant.
Outcome: HIA provides policy-makers with objective data they need to consider health in decisions, and increase our access to healthy options
Value: Healthy kids; strong communities.
