HEAC Technical Support uses a variety of strategies to support community groups to change their nutrition and physical activity environments in each of the two sectors during HEAC Phase II.
At the core of the program is a team of experts that provide training, consultation, tools and materials to support HEAC grantees to be successful in achieving their HEAC goals. The HEAC Technical Support program emphasizes peer learning (sharing new and innovative strategies and ideas) and participatory planning (grantees help to shape the scope and direction of the support available).
Finally, the Technical Support program provides materials, tools and resources to grantees by linking grantees with other state and national organizations that provide updates, policy alerts and web-based strategy exchanges.
