In May 2004, the
Mount Vernon Healthy Communities Advisory Committee divided into
work groups to draft an action plan based on the three priority
recommendations chosen at the April 29 meeting. The draft plan
was presented at the May 27 meeting and revised slightly based
on Advisory Committee feedback. Additional revisions and clarifications
were made after the June 3 public hearing.
The overall goals for the development of the action plan include:
1. Establish working subcommittees responsible for carrying out
the actions for each of the three priority recommendations;
2.
Identify community and financial resources needed to meet project
objectives;
3.
Develop measures to evaluate the impact of the Healthy Communities
Project on physical activity rates and healthy food choices in
Mount Vernon; and
4.
Develop strategies to integrate the changes into the culture of
the community that support physical activity and healthy food choices.
