Active Living By Design works

 

 

Active Living By Design works to create healthier places by addressing policies, systems and the built environment.

We recognize that place and social determinants of health, rather than individual choice, are the primary influences on behavior. Through our experience as a connector between grantmakers and the communities in which they invest, we have developed a unique perspective about the process of community-led change.

Since 2002, we have helped create healthier places in rural, suburban and urban communities and at local, regional, state and national scales.

Our Team

Active Living By Design delivers multidisciplinary expertise in public health, public policy, urban planning and design, community development, communications, nutrition, architecture and social work. We work nimbly, adapt quickly in an evolving field, and provide a range of services to meet our clients’ needs.
Whether you need an adviser for a focused telephone call or a strategic partner in a long-term engagement, we’re here to help you achieve your healthy community goals. See our services for more details about ways we provide support or contact us to discuss how we can meet your needs.

Mission

Active Living By Design creates community-led change by working with local, state and national partners to build a culture of active living and healthy eating.
