Description:
The purpose of this program is to support local initiatives focused on evidence-based strategies to overcome health disparities in the prevention and early detection of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and chronic pulmonary disease by implementing policy and systems changes related to anti-displacement housing efforts that include land-use planning or affordability and that address housing stability in communities. Award recipients will convene cross-sector partners to change policies and/or zoning regulations or design guidelines and requirements to transform land-use planning and/or housing systems related to anti-displacement or affordability, which can ultimately have a positive impact on reducing incidences of cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and pulmonary diseases.
