Eden Area Livability Initiative

Funded through Alameda County by a grant from the California Department of Transportation

Bringing optimism to communities and creating livable neighborhoods that support health requires a common vision, strong partnerships, and identifying concrete solutions to address community priorities. Prevention Institute is collaborating with Alameda County Supervisor Nate Miley on an 18-month-long livability initiative in 6 diverse communities. Through a process of sustained community engagement and strategy prioritization, using the THRIVE tool as a framework, the Eden Area Livability Initiative will develop an integrated vision of community livability, prioritize strategies necessary in order to make this vision a reality, and identify a set of catalyst projects that will address issues of greatest concern to community member and build momentum toward sustainable long-term change.
