Recommendations from the RWJF Commission to Build a Healthier America Senator Bill Frist, Commissioner

The Commission’s Recommendations A twin philosophy: Good health requires personal responsibility and a societal commitment to remove the obstacles preventing too many Americans from making healthy decisions The recommendations focus on people and the places where we spend the bulk of our time: Homes and Communities Schools Workplaces Building a healthier America is feasible in years, not decades, if we collaborate and act on what is making a difference

Starting Early Ensure that all children have high-quality early developmental support (child care, education and other services). This will require committing substantial additional resources to meet the early developmental needs particularly of children in low- income families. Feed children only healthy foods in schools. Require all schools (K-12) to include time for all children to be physically active every day.

Create public-private partnerships to open and sustain full- service grocery stores in communities without access to healthful foods. Fund and design WIC and SNAP (Food Stamps) programs to meet the needs of hungry families with nutritious food. Accessing Healthy Foods

Creating Healthy Communities Become a smoke-free nation. Eliminating smoking remains one of the most important contributions to longer, healthier lives. Integrate safety and wellness into every aspect of community life. Develop a “health impact” rating for housing and infrastructure projects that reflects the projected effects on community health and provides incentives for projects that earn the rating. Create “healthy community” demonstrations to evaluate the effects of a full complement of health-promoting policies and programs.
