This guidebook is a compilation of lessons learned, insights, exercises, and resources developed during a series of workshops hosted by the Community Transformation Initiative during the summer of 2013.

​

It includes ideas, strategies and tools to plan and conduct a workshop on Healthy Community Design. The goal of the workshops and guide are to raise awareness about the connections between urban design and health impacts, to view firsthand the existing design challenges in a particular community, and to build a consensus among community leaders and city staff about what steps can be taken to address the neighborhood's public health and urban design challenges.
