6 Communities Receive Award for Improving Community Health

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has awarded the first "RWJF Roadmaps to Health Prize" to six communities that have worked to improve their communities' health.

The six communities — Santa Cruz County, Calif.; New Orleans; Cambridge, Mass.; Fall River, Mass.; Manistique, Mich.; and Minneapolis — were chosen from among more than 160 applicants for creating partnerships and developing innovative strategies to improve community health. Each community received $25,000 to continue their work on community health.


The prize is part of the County Health Rankings & Roadmaps program, which educates the public and policymakers on community health issues.
