“Place matters” for health in important ways. Differences in neighborhood conditions powerfully predict who is healthy, who is sick, and who lives longer. Learn how Rancho Cucamonga through its Healthy RC initiative used data and GIS to identify community concerns related to health and well-being, understand their root causes, forge new connections and alliances across diverse sectors, and build support for effective place-based strategies to improve health outcomes so families can thrive.
