Active Living Policy Charrette

Location: Humboldt County, California

Funding Organizations: The California Endowment and Public Health Institute

Cooperating Agencies: HumPAL is staffed by employees of the Natural Resources Services Division of Redwood Community Action Agency in Eureka, California. The HumPAL Policy Subcommittee played an integral role in designing and implementing the event. Committee membership included government, private sector and advocacy organization representatives from Humboldt County Department of Health & Human Services, Planwest Partners, Green Wheels of the Northcoast Environmental Center, Caltrans District 1, Area 1 Agency on Aging, Arcata City Council, Humboldt Bay Bicycle Commuters’ Association, Spencer Engineering & Construction Management, and the Healthy Humboldt Coalition. In order to guarantee success, this group met weekly for six weeks prior to the event. Many hours of staff time were contributed for logistical preparation by the County Division of Environmental Health, and the Area 1 Agency on Aging. Planwest staff prepared one of the presentations and facilitated small group work.
