Abstract
The neighborhood intervention organization, Building Blocks of Kalamazoo, influences public and community health on a small scale. I use the Dahlgren-Whitehead model to explain how Building Blocks uses Asset Based Community Development approaches to address modifiable social determinants of health. Their promotion of the agency of community members strengthens social networks and enhances built environments in the neighborhoods at a block level to improve the community of Kalamazoo.
