About the Building Healthy Places Toolkit

The Building Healthy Places Toolkit outlines opportunities to enhance health through changes in approaches to building and projects. Developers, owners, property managers, designers, investors, and others involved in real estate decision making can use these strategies and tactics to create places that contribute to healthier people and communities and to enhance and preserve value.

The Toolkit provides 21 evidence-based recommendations that are supported by action-oriented evidence-based and best practice strategies. The report also includes seven schematics that illustrate how the recommendations can be applied across real estate product sectors.
