CO-OP: Pilsen Releases Survey Results
In the summer of 2009, El Valor and CLOCC conducted a survey of Pilsen residents. The survey gathered information about healthy lifestyle behaviors and weight. The goal was to provide information to the community for program design and funding proposals for adults and children. The survey results also provide baseline information for future evaluations of community health improvement efforts.
