Strategies

Support temporary programs that work to energize participants to lose weight via prizes, often combined with education, weight status and food intake tracking, regular check-ins, and group support

Support funds that help create or maintain affordable housing, subsidize rental housing, and assist homebuyers with low incomes and non-profit housing developers

Offer flexible working arrangements, allowing the duties of a single full-time position to be covered by two part-time employees

Provide employees with child care options at work; care may be provided free of charge, partially subsidized as part of an employee benefit package, or offered at market rates

Create designated tax districts that generate revenue to invest in affordable housing initiatives, blight remediation, and economic development efforts
