Past Training – August 2022 AFPHS Training – Livable Communities and Social Determinants of Health

AARP defines a livable community as one “that is safe and secure. It offers choices in where to live and how to get around. And it equitably serves residents of all ages, ability levels, incomes, races, ethnicities, and other backgrounds.” Having safe, healthy, and livable communities where older adults can remain active and engaged is an important part of healthy aging.

This installment of our 2022 training series focused on how livable communities are addressing social determinants of health. Speakers shared national and local level innovative practices in livable communities and note valuable partnerships with departments of public health.
