Cardiovascular Diseases Clinical Trial
— HEALOfficial title:
Health, Environment and Action in Louisville (HEAL) Green Heart Louisville Project
The purpose of this study is to examine how the environment and neighborhood characteristics affects the health of the area residents. The study will help determine how changing neighborhood characteristics, such as green space, affect heart health, risk factors for other diseases, sense of well- being or neighborhood cohesion.
