Resources

By conducting research, we discover what strategies most effectively move people toward choosing healthy behaviors. Using these tactics, we are most likely to make a difference that will eventually be evident in population health statistics. Then, we develop strategies for helping local leaders—who have direct knowledge of the places where people live, learn, work, and play—apply those strategies to building Healthy Places. We have resources (listed below) that are available to help local leaders in their efforts.

K-State Research & Extension's Community Health Institute (CHI) stays abreast of what resources are available through other organizations and creates new resources that support people who want to develop healthy places. Of these resources, which include products and connections to people, the connections to people are the most vital. Our staff work with area, community, and place-based leaders who want to lead their groups towards improved health.
