Do you sometimes wish you had the opportunity to make a big difference? Today, you really do!

Cardiovascular disease is the leading killer of Americans and creates massive strain on our economy. The disease can start early in life and is influenced over time by behaviors and the environments where people live. You can help Delaware make good health a priority. 

Preventing diseases before they start is a good long-term investment and research indicates prevention can also actually save money while saving lives. Governor Markell has proposed a program that would establish an interconnected network of walking pathways and biking trails throughout the state, thereby increasing opportunities for communities to participate in physical activity. Every $1 invested in building bike and pedestrian trails brings nearly $3 in medical cost savings.
