Resources

We are sharing the following resources and tools that were produced by the Healthy Business Coalition. These tools were developed during the lifetime of the initiative and are no longer monitored or updated. BSR is therefore unable to provide support or any guidance in the use of these tools.

Business Actions for a Healthy Society Playbook

The Business Actions for a Healthy Society offers guidance for business on how to “move the needle” on community health in the U.S. and positively impact the social determinants of health, especially with respect to building back better after the pandemic. The Actions place particular emphasis on addressing the needs of groups that are suffering disproportionately due to the forces of systemic racism.
