Health Equity Planning Toolkit

Posted on June 21st, 2023 to Uncategorized

A grant from the Vermont Department of Health enabled the Regional Planning Commissions, working together in collaboration with health partners, to draft a Health Equity Toolkit. Health Equity is achieved when everyone has a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health. This Toolkit serves as a guide for communities to introduce the concept of health equity and incorporate it into municipal planning documents and bylaws.
