Healthy Living for All

Formed in February 2003, the BC Alliance for Healthy Living (BCAHL) is a group of organizations that came together with a mission to improve the health of British Columbians through every stage of life.

Our members and partners include health-promoting non-profits and health authorities and together, we support policies and programs that promote healthy living to prevent chronic disease throughout BC.

BCAHL works to advance and support health-promoting policies, environments, programs and services so that people in BC have equal opportunities to be healthy.
