New Release: What Works for Health

County Health Rankings & Roadmaps has announced the release of What Works for Health –http://www.countyhealthrankings.org/what-works-for-health.  It is an “online searchable menu of policies and programs focusing on factors that make communities healthier places to live, learn, work and play.”  Developed by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute in collaboration with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, it allows local leaders to choose a health factor of interest (i.e. tobacco use, employment, access to health care, environmental quality, etc.) and browse through the evidence ratings for particular programs, policies, or system changes that address the specific health factor.
