For over ten years, the Hawaii State Department of Healths Healthy Hawaii Initiative (HHI) has been supporting healthy lifestyles by implementing policies and programs to create sustainable changes in Hawaiis communities, schools, and workplaces. Launched in 2000, HHI is a statewide effort focused on reducing three core behaviors that contribute to chronic disease: smoking, inactivity, and poor diet. HHI has made significant strides in helping Hawaiis residents lead healthy lives and has been recognized for its success as a comprehensive public sector prevention program. HHI has expanded its efforts to also include chronic disease management programs and is now known as the Department of Healths Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Division (CDPHPD).
