Healthy Villages are communities of varying scale created at the intersection of neighborhood planning and community health. Through the coordination and integration of investments and services, Healthy Villages focus on improving quality of life and enriching the vitality of the neighborhoods while protecting their heritages, histories and residents.

• Education (from literacy to higher education and everything in-between)
• Food security (including good nutrition)
• Social support (e.g., childcare, adult daycare)
• Health care (e.g., emergency services, short-term stays including observation beds, post-acute care such as behavioral health and skilled nursing, primary care, care management and access to quality specialty care when needed)
