What We Do

Turning Evidence Into Healthier Lives.

Lifestyle Health Initiative helps people and communities build healthier lives before, during, and beyond illness. Our work spans four connected areas — each translating evidence-informed lifestyle medicine into practical education, programs, and partnerships.
