APHA Online Transportation and Health Toolkit

Keywords / Description:

APHA has compiled a list of resources to help health officials work with their local transportation departments. It includes training materials for communication between health and transportation sectors, talking points, outreach materials, background data and resources, as well as media and meeting training.

While it does not specifically focus on health in all policies (HiAP), the transportation sector is an important sector to include in HiAP efforts because transportation policies impact health in many ways.
