Abstract

Beginning in November 2012, the Regional Profiles on Healthy Food Access were created for six regions of the state. Data were compiled by University of Minnesota Extension educators as part of the statewide Community Transformation Initiative for Healthy Eating. The primary purpose of the Regional Profiles on Healthy Food Access was to understand the social determinants of health in order to identify populations with 1) significant health inequities, and 2) limited access to healthy food. This understanding would then enhance regional work on behalf of the Community Transformation Initiative for Healthy Eating.

Description

This document provides a brief overview of the contents of the profiles and the available data used to create them. All data are from secondary or existing sources and thus there are limitations for their use. This document also lays out some DOs and DON’Ts for their use.
