The Town of North Kingstown is partnering with the to shape policies on healthy living through their Healthy Places by Design project.  The goal is to promote active lifestyles in the community.  This will include issues such as increasing walkability and bikeability, and improving access to recreation and healthy foods.

- Participate in one of our four Working Groups to turn project recommendations into a reality.

- Review the Community Design Event Products and other important project documents.
