In 2004, the Alameda County Public Health Department chose Sobrante Park as a laboratory for testing how social cohesion and civic leadership improves health by bringing neighbors together to advocate for resources like better parks, better bus service or more police patrols. In a separate initiative, The California Endowment this year began funding its Building Healthy Communities initiative. It intends to spend hundreds of millions of dollars from 2010 to 2020 building up resource-poor neighborhoods.
