Health in All Policies (HiAP) is a collaborative approach that integrates and articulates health considerations into policy making across sectors to improve the health of all communities and people. 

Please join the City of Napa and regional partners- Bay Area Quality Management District, City of Richmond, California Environmental Justice Alliance (CEJA), and Veritable Good Consulting as we discuss the role of public policy in shaping community health outcomes.
Questions? Please contact LHNC@countyofnapa.org
Napa County Public Health is working with the community to promote a healthy retail environment, which includes reducing youth access to tobacco and vaping products.  We are gathering data about public perception of the retail environment and levels of support for policies that limit access to tobacco products. 
Stores in our communities play a critical role in our health. They not only impact the economic well-being of neighborhoods, but also the physical health of the people who visit them. The types of stores we have in our community, the types of products available in the stores and how they’re promoted influence us all, but especially our kids. Earlier this year, students from Napa schools participated in store observation surveys and visited 136 stores across Napa County.  The results of their work, along with this survey will be released in the Spring of 2020.
 
Please provide your valuable input by taking the survey here.
Suscol Intertribal Council invites the entire community to join the First People's Tribes in "Honoring Our Ancestors" through the traditional gathering of the Powwow. Dancers, drummers, and food and craft vendors from many different tribes of North America will share their arts, skills and traditions.

Everyone is welcome at Skyline Wilderness Park on October 5, from 11 am to 6 pm, to watch or participate in songs, drum, and dance. Please join your community in celebrating the incredible beauty and resilience of the Native American culture. 
Latinx Heritage Month continues! The Napa County Hispanic Network has compiled a calendar highlighting an abundance of events, across the county, celebrating Latinx Heritage Month (also known as Hispanic Heritage Month). 
The purpose of this celebratory time is to recognize the contributions and vital presence of both Hispanic and Latino Americans to the United States, and to observe their native heritage and contributing culture. Please join your community as we honor America's rich history and celebrate the diversity that makes Napa County a special place to live, work and play.

Join the Live Healthy Napa County collaborative for our fourth quarterly convening of 2019 on Tuesday, November 12. We will continue the process of developing the Community Health Improvement Plan.

The meeting is open to the public, and all members of the community are welcome to attend. Registration is requested to ensure adequate space, resources, and refreshments are prepared. We look forward to seeing you there! Please RSVP here.
