Public Health Advocates helps neighborhoods and schools become places that nurture health and well-being of everyone by providing reports and policy recommendations that offer solutions to make health a reality for everyone. PHAdvocates supports teens and adults from Boyle Heights, CA in their fight to get healthier food and drinks in their schools. This inspiring group got sugary drinks off the school menu and now they are working to get purified drinking water stations installed in schools and are demanding regular cleaning and up-keep of school drinking fountains. Launched under the auspices of their Healthy Eating Active Living Cities Campaign in 2015, their Complete Parks Initiative works with neighborhood leaders, residents, local elected officials and their staff to place parks and open space at the center of community and economic health. The HEAL Cities campaign provides online resources, training, and technical assistance to city officials as they adopt policies that create safe places to walk, bike and play, healthy food retail options like farmers markets, community gardens and healthy corner stores, and municipal workplaces that support nutrition and physical activity.
