You’ve probably heard of the social determinants of health, but what about place-based health? Join us for this free webinar that dives into how the characteristics of a neighborhood contribute to the health of its residents. It will feature research led by the University of Louisville and Simmons College of Kentucky. Learn about the study that looked for ways to improve health at the neighborhood level, and get a deeper understanding of how transforming places can transform health.

You’ll learn:

• What place-based health means and why it matters for health equity.

• What makes a “health-supportive” neighborhood across different communities.

• Why neighborhood conditions can be stronger predictors of health than individual behaviors.

• How to apply a place-based lens to your own work or organization.
