<p class="MsoNormal">The Oregon Health Authority-Public Health Division was one of several sponsors of a visit by James Sallis Ph.D., Director of Active Living Research, who spoke about the critical issue of land use and transportation strategies as a strategic
opportunity for public health to get more Oregonians moving and reduce the burden of obesity and chronic disease.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dr. Sallis appeared in a number of Oregon venues – including Tigard, Bend, Salem, Eugene, Beaverton and Portland – as part of the “Healthy Communities Speaker Series.” This series is held each year by the Oregon Chapter of the American
Planning Association. If you would like to review the slides from Jim’s talks, please see the following links:<o:p></o:p></p>
