Subject: BCHLA Report: Healthy Futures for BC Families Policy
Recommendations



Dear Colleague,

 

The BC Healthy Living Alliance today released the report "Healthy
Futures for BC Families - Policy Recommendations for Improving the
Health of British Columbians". 

 

The report can be downloaded from our website at

nal-Web.pdf

 

The Report contains 45 recommendations covering such areas as early
childhood development, housing, food security, income security,
transportation and supportive environments.

 

Please read our Op Ed "It takes more than knowledge to fuel healthy
lifestyles" <http://www.bchealthyliving.ca/node/467>  about the report
which was published today in the Vancouver Sun as well as the Press
Release <http://www.bchealthyliving.ca/node/464>  which accompanied the
report. 

 

We would like to thank you once again for your participation in the
various meetings and Forums which provided such important input into
this Report. We would welcome your comments as we proceed to work with
governments and other sectors for the implementation of policies to
ensure that all British Columbians can enjoy a healthy future.
