HSP.1.2.DCreate a series of health and wellness events to promote healthy lifestyles (summer streets to promote walking, mental health resources, nutrition programs, etc.).

Resilience is also about everyday wellbeing—physical health, mental health, social connection, and safe opportunities for activity. This action develops a series of health and wellness events that promote healthy lifestyles and community cohesion, such as “summer streets” initiatives that encourage walking, along with mental health resources and nutrition programs. By reducing chronic stressors and improving overall health, the community becomes better able to cope with climate-related shocks like heat waves, storms, and extended disruptions. Success looks like strong participation, partnerships with local health organizations, improved access to wellness resources, and increased awareness of protective behaviors during climate events.
