• Description:
  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has funded state and local health departments to conduct and build capacity for health impact assessment (HIA), a process to incorporate health into decision-making processes in nonhealth sectors, with a goal of creating sustainable HIA programs. In 2011 and 2014, CDC awarded two consecutive 3-year HIA cooperative agreements to six recipients in each cycle. The second HIA cooperative agreement was terminated after two years (2014–2016) because of a loss of federal funding for the program. CDC conducted a pilot study to assess the capacity of recently funded state health departments to sustain an HIA program without federal funding.
