Want a Healthy Hometown? Move Here.

Cities around the US are catching on to the fact that health is shaped by more than just what happens in the doctor’s office.

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) honors this innovation with its annual Culture of Health Prize, which goes to eight cities working to ensure that everyone in their community has the opportunity to live a longer, healthier, and more productive life.
