The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction Unit supports Minnesotans to be active, eat more nutritious foods, strive for a healthy weight and make healthy and safe choices related to alcohol and other drug use. We provide leadership, coordination and technical assistance to a broad range of partners across Minnesota and work to improve the public’s health in settings such as schools, health care, public health systems, community centers and worksites. We aspire to reduce the serious human impact and financial cost of chronic disease and injury. To achieve our goal we help to create healthy communities that support people and their families to maintain healthy lives.
