Healthy Eating Active Living (HEAL; 2011)
Working with the Mayor, Marti co-sponsored a HEAL resolution to increase healthy eating and active living in the City of Vallejo.
The Result:
Upon approval of the HEAL resolution, Marti was instrumental in winning approval for the City’s first-ever Health Element in its Comprehensive General Plan Update. In addition, she sponsored a HEAL related event called, Just Food, Celebrating Locally Grow, that focused on local and regional agricultural systems; addressing food security and food Justice issues; preventing obesity; and promoting a healthy eating lifestyle. The resolution also laid the foundation for the Mayor’s initiative to institute a City Employee Health and Wellness Program.
