Session Description:

Significant population health challenges require both bold action and effective tools. Large community campaigns for health improvement are a challenge to organize and sustain – and even more of a challenge to demonstrate tangible impact.

Learn how the Washington Health Foundation (WHF) created the largest civic engagement project for health in the history of Washington State – involving more than 800 organizations and business, over 200 schools, and 30,000 people – with innovative health challenges, public education messages, and public policy leadership.

Explore WHF's custom web tools that engage individuals in learning about and tracking their own personal weight, nutrition, water intake, sleep and miles logged. See how WHF's web tools educate and provide a personal space for people to record, better understand and change their health habits. And learn how your community can gain access at no charge to these tools for your own health improvement campaign.

Participants will:

  • Learn the principles and steps with which the Washington Health Foundation assembled and ran a successful, state-wide health improvement campaign.
  • Explore web-based tools for managing a health improvement campaign and engaging individual community members to track and improve health habits.
  • Learn how your community can take advantage (at no charge) of WHF’s web tools and database for your own local campaign.
