Summary:  View help for Summary Community-Based Survey of Supports for Healthy Eating and Active Living (CBS HEAL) is a CDC survey of a nationally representative sample of U.S. municipalities to better understand existing community-level policies and practices that support healthy eating and active living. The survey collects information about policies such as nutrition standards, incentives for healthy food retail, bike/pedestrian-friendly design, and Complete Streets. About 2,000 municipalities respond to the survey. Participating municipalities receive a report that allows them to compare their policies and practices with other municipalities of similar geography, population size, and urban status. The CBS HEAL survey was first administered in 2014 and was administered again in 2021. Data is provided in multiple formats for download including as a SAS file. A methods report and a SAS program for formatting the data are also provided. Read less
