CEED@Chicago coalition aims to reduce diabetes and cardiovascular disease among African Americans and Latinos in the Chicago metropolitan area through:

• Improving the distribution of healthy food by promoting the local production of food and increasing food access data so policy makers can make informed decisions

• Increasing health literacy at the community level through peer education by expanding training for Community Health Workers (CHWs) in healthy eating and physical activity
