The Healthy Development Measurement Tool is a comprehensive evaluation metric to consider health needs in urban development plans and projects.

The HDMT explicitly connects public health to urban development planning in efforts to achieve a higher quality social and physical environment that advances health.

We're committed to assessing urban environmental conditions and responding to health inequities and environmental policy gaps using health impact assessment methods. We're the San Francisco Department of Public Health, Program on Health, Equity and Sustainability.
