The Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL) action team welcomes members interested in addressing barriers to the equitable ability of children and adults to engage in physical activity and healthy nutrition practices, which are essential tools in preventing and controlling cancer. Our work addresses barriers at all levels, emphasizing structural barriers at the environmental level, including geographic, political & socioeconomic factors.
