OUR PURPOSE
We are Queensland’s dedicated prevention agency established to drive change, so all Queenslanders have the best chance to live a healthier life, no matter who they are or where they live.
How we’re making healthy happen.
To achieve our goals, our activity, energy and focus will straddle three key strategic pillars.
Prevention
Prevention means addressing the many things that impact the health of people and communities, including the economic, social, cultural, and political circumstances in which people are born, grow, and live.
Population
Our population approach focuses on creating environments that support healthier options at all stages of life and for priority populations.
Partnership
We will support the health promotion activity, capacity and direction of our partners by providing access to resources and expertise to scale-up and leverage evidence-informed and innovative approaches.
