What is Communities Creating Healthy Environments?
Communities Creating Healthy Environments (CCHE) is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) that aims to prevent childhood obesity by increasing access to healthy foods and safe places to play in communities of color. The program will advance RWJF’s efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic by 2015 by supporting diverse, community-based organizations and federally chartered tribal nations in the development and implementation of effective, culturally competent environmental policy initiatives to address childhood obesity at the local level.
