The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction Unit, located within the Minnesota Department of Health’s Center for Health Promotion, 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. Unit program coordinators are part of a small group of agency technical experts who provide ongoing strategic planning, technical assistance and coordination of health promotion initiatives statewide.  We focus on creating healthy communities, work places and schools through education, policy and environmental change, so that Minnesotans and their families can live, work, learn and play in good health.
