<p class="ydp9763ade0yiv4503857180xmsonormal">Adventist Health is taking steps to expand our care beyond our hospital walls to improve community well-being. We are excited to partner with Blue Zones because it offers a holistic approach to transform communities which focuses on the
health of people, places and policy. The process includes working with local government, tribes, schools, employers, non-profits, faith-based organizations, grocery stores, restaurants and community members to make healthy choices more accessible. Together,
with you and the Blue Zones framework, we hope to see lower obesity rates, increased vegetable consumption, increased daily physical activity, improved productivity and improved physical, social and emotional well-being in Mendocino County.

<p class="ydp9763ade0yiv4503857180xmsonormal">Blue Zones is not new for our community. In 2017, there were several community meetings regarding Blue Zones implementation in the Ukiah Valley. We are now reviving the conversation and expanding to all of Mendocino County. We are in the
early stages of initiating a Blue Zones conversation for a county-wide approach. The process starts by introducing the concept to key leaders, completing an internal readiness assessment, then introducing Blue Zones to the broader community. The steps are
as follows:</p>
<p class="ydp9763ade0yiv4503857180xmsonormal"> </p>
<p class="ydp9763ade0yiv4503857180xmsonormal">Step 1: Road Shows for Key Leaders, completed in March 2021

<p class="ydp9763ade0yiv4503857180xmsonormal">Step 3: Site Visit & Focus Groups, scheduled for May 3-7, 2021
